I have a pool of servers and f5 BIG-IP loadbalancer in front of them. I want to configure the following behaviour: if one server haven't answered on http request in e.g. 1 second request will be resent to another server. Is it possible?

that would probably be your answer.

URL-only answers are encouraged. Maybe you could quote a line or two?– chicksSep 28, 2015 at 15:49

According to the docs, HTTP::retry command is valid only inside HTTP_RESPONSE and HTTP_RESPONSE_DATA. But in my case these events will not be triggered.– simpadjoSep 28, 2015 at 16:00

There's a reason URL-only answers are not encouraged. The URLs go dead after some time.– KSKOct 11, 2023 at 0:20
