CSS and active/backup services

nikcasiraghi · ‎07-09-2008

Hi,

just a simple question, in a CSS 11500 environment is it possible to define 2 services (A and B), add them to the same content and then use them in a active/backup way ? I mean, if A is active then all traffic is balanced to A, in case A is not active the traffic goes to B.

Thanks in advance.

you will need to use the "sorry server" feature in CSS to acheive that

Sample Config

!********* SERVICE *****************

service serverA

ip address x.x.x.1

active

service serverB

ip address x.x.x.2

active

!********** OWNER ****************

owner SYED

content EXAMPLE

vip address 1.1.1.1

port 80

protocol tcp

add service serverA

primarySorryServer ServerB

active

********************************
