Question regarding GSLB Checker Feature

 

Information

 

Summary:

Can we failover all prod VIP to DR site if only 1 VIP fails on the GEO FQDN section?

Environment:

Product: Loadmaster

Version: Any

Platform: Any

Application: Any application using GEO

Question/Problem Description:

a) They currently have 2 FQDNs

fqdn1
ip1
ip2

fqdn2

ip3

ip4

 

b) Currently using the Fixed weighting setting, whenever production is down, the system failsover to the DR. This is working as per expectation.

Question1
They would like to know however, is it possible to configure the KEMP such that, if the production in fqdn1 fails, KEMP also fails over the fqdn2 to the DR?

Question2
Is it possible to configure the checker for more than 1 IP address or services?

Steps to Reproduce:  
Error Message:  
Defect Number:  
Enhancement Number:  
Cause:  
Resolution:

Prod VIP: 10.67.54.161:80

healthcheck VIP: 10.67.54.162:79 -> set the RS to the remote site you wanted checked

Real server handling the traffic: 10.67.54.151:80

Prod VIP load balancing option should be fixed weighting with higher weight on 10.67.54.151 so traffic would flow to the real server and not the healthcheck server.

Enable enhanced options and tick the critical on the 10.67.54.162:79 so that if the healthcheck RS fails, the prod VIP would fail too.
