[f-nsp] ServerIron: direct requests to alternate server if all real servers are down.

[Drew Weaver]

Hi Scott,

Thank you for that tip that got me where I needed to be.

My last question is it seems to take rather a long time (3-4 minutes) for it to switch back to the main servers after they come back up.

Is there some way to make that faster?

thanks,
-Drew

backup is correct.

You need to add 'port # lb-pri-servers' on the vserver.

Hi,

How can you make a serveriron XL send requests to a different server only if the primary server(s) fail healthchecks?

I tried setting the secondary server as a backup server but the load balancer was balancing traffic between the primary servers and the 'Backup server' I only want requests to be sent to the backup server in the event the other real servers are offline.
Thanks,
-Drew
