Hello All, Im testing starting the backend servers as disabled in the config according to the manual - "disabled The "disabled" keyword starts the server in the "disabled" state. That means that it is marked down in maintenance mode, and no connection other than the ones allowed by persist mode will reach it. It is very well suited to setup new servers, because normal traffic will never reach them, while it is still possible to test the service by making use of the force-persist mechanism."
my config line looks like server RIP_Name 192.168.66.50 weight 100 cookie RIP_Name agent-check agent-port 12345 check port 80 inter 2000 rise 2 fall 3 minconn 0 maxconn 0 on-marked-down shutdown-sessions disabled The server comes up in maintenance mode as you would expect, but then using the unix socket commands I am unable to get the server into the up state. I have tried 'set server VIP_Name/RIP_Name state ready' and 'enable server VIP_Name/RIP_Name' and the stats page reports the server as 'DOWN(agent)' If I remove the feedback agent configuration so my server line looks like the following - server RIP_Name 192.168.66.50 weight 100 cookie RIP_Name check port 80 inter 2000 rise 2 fall 3 minconn 0 maxconn 0 on-marked-down shutdown-sessions disabled its possible to get the service to come up using the aforementioned socket commands. Thanks Mark
