NimbostratusUsing F5 as a fall back host
Hello:
Is any using the F5 device itself as a fall back host? I would like to host the maintenance page on the device itself if possible instead of having another server as the fallback host...

Nimbostratusin the conf is looks like this:
class maint_logo_png extern {
type string
filename "/var/class/maint.logo.png.class"
}
class maint_index_html extern {
type string
filename "/var/class/maint.index.html.class"
}
I liked the irule at the beginning of this thread,
when RULE_INIT {
set sorry "
All Servers Down
"
}
when HTTP_REQUEST {
if {[active_members myPool] == 0} {
HTTP::respond 200 content $::sorry
}
}
it did keep the original URL, so the visitor only sees the domain and no internal stuff.
Cant we insert a picture there?
