C H A P T E R 4 | Intel® NetStructure™ 7190 |
Step 2. Create ISV Group for the generic (not Intel) brokered site and associate its service.
This site is a legacy site with a generic load balancer. The 7190 can function quite well in this environment, but is not able to obtain metric information to support one of the metrics oriented balancing methods. Generic load balancers should be set up as an ISV Group. The brokered services offered by the load balancer are configured in the 7190 just like any other service (VIP and port).
Assume that the Web pages behind the single HTTP service available at the site are constantly changing. In this case it might be unwise to probe for a specific URL, and preferable to verify the presence of the HTTP server by attempting a periodic TCP connection.
The scenario description stated that the service provided at this site was to use Flash Response Mode. Since no load balancer is present, only the 7190 can broadcast Flash responses. This is a single point of failure, so a second 7190 is located at this site. The second 7190 does not need to be listed as authoritative for any zones, but this would be a waste of a good resource.
