My custom health check is a .cfm file which the loadbalancer hits to see if the instance is active. If it's down, or returns anything but a 200/OK error code, it's considered down. This also allows me to remove/rename the health check template for that instance to take it offline, while I can still access it for troubleshooting.
I really wish there was a way to do this. The only thing I can think of is running the proxy service on 127.0.0.1, which should work, but I am limited to 1 instance per physical server per cluster. Any other ideas?
