Just curious to see what are the different health check mechanisms being used for ARS in a load balanced env in different companies. We are using F5 and we have load balancing for Midtiers and also for ARS. For midtiers our health check was to monitor http://webserver:port/arsys/home url. And no issues with this. For ARS we are using tcp monitor on the ARS tcp port. However recently we are seeing on ars side that the ars tcp port is responding fine but the arserver itself is hung, so the load balancer is detecting as if the ARS is up and running but users end up getting timeouts during login. So how are you avoiding this situation in your organization? Are you guys writing perl/java/c login scripts and using these with the loadbalancer as health checks?
