Netscaler is a bit different then I guess. I have seen that it shows red the moment the ARS goes down or if you shut down its service.. I usually use the Services console on the admin console of netscaler when I hear of a outage on any of our servers and it does show it if its down.

Telnet keeps the connection open for some reason even when the AR Server is not up. I believe we also have a cron script to monitor for the processes and if one of them is not running then it creates a file. The load balancer checks for the files existence and acts upon it.

The port can be responding but the application can be down. versicle wrote: > > We are using a Cisco loadbalancer in front of our three application > servers and we are trying to configure it with a script to determine some > "ok" application response.
