Wido den Hollander commented on CLOUDSTACK-443: ----------------------------------------------- So we will only limit ourselfs to HTTP or TCP checks? Modern loadbalancers can also do IMAP or SMTP health checks, so imho we should support that as well. Just because AWS only supports HTTP or TCP doesn't mean we should do the same. A F5 can do SMTP health checks by doing HELO requests. > health monitoring for load balanced instances > --------------------------------------------- > > Key: CLOUDSTACK-443 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-443 > Project: CloudStack > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Network Controller > Affects Versions: 4.1.0 > Reporter: Murali Reddy > Assignee: Rajesh Battala > Fix For: 4.1.0 > > > Enhance existing 'load balancer' network service provided by CloudStack, to > support health monitor the load balanced instances.
