When would LB::status return session_enabled?

Hi!

When would LB::status return session_enabled? I've played around a bit and I can't find any member/node combination that returns this. 

  • session_disabled
    - When a member that is marked up by a monitor, or does not have a monitor is disabled.
  • up
    - A member that is enabled and marked up by a monitor, or does not have a monitor.
  • down
    - Forced offline or marked down by a monitor.
  • session_enabled
    - ?

Documentation states that it is one of the possible return values:

Any ideas?

    Hi,

     

    I'm not sure but may this reflect if there are persistent sessions? That would make sense for me, because when you set the state of a pool member or node manually, it's up to "Enabled", "Disabled" (persistent and active connections) or "Forced offline" (active connections). So maybe you need to add persistence to get this status result.
