was wondering about that myself (\n v. \r\n)

 

 

I ran across this solution double checking, and question its accuracy:

 

SOL2167: Writing full HTTP commands for Extended Content Verification (ECV) or Extended Application Verification (EAV) health monitors: Click here

 

 

seems i remember there were diffs betw 4.x & 9.x specifically regarding line term chars, & this doc makes no distinctions re: version, but does re: creation of EAV v. ECV monitors (without defining either).

 

 

This solution seems less confusing, and may be more accurate:

 

SOL3224: HTTP health checks may fail even though the node is responding correctly: Click here

 

 

Please advise if these or any other solution on the topic needs updating. Details much appreciated...
