What health monitor can I use for VIP that host port 50000-59999?

Hi,

 

Since you've defined your node as a wildcard, you'll need to create a custom tcp monitor that specifically lists one of the ports that need to be monitored. There's not really a way to monitor all those ports without creating a specific monitor for each one, and while it could be done, that would be excessively chatty I'm sure. Will a successful check against port 50000 be sufficient to tell that the application is functioning on all those ports?

 

 

You could also script an external type monitor (shell script, perl, etc) that executed an actual application call against the node but without knowing what this application does I can't get any more specific than that.

 

 

EDIT: You'll need to open the Advanced dialog in the monitor creation page to get the box where you assign a specific port to the monitor.
