Creating ServerFarm on ACE

[kalugotla1]

configured two reservers on ACEs,but need to create a serverfarm ,where all the traffic goes to only one rserver1,when this rserver1 fails completely or not in service the traffic need to be hitting rserver2.

how can I configure on ACEs ,on CSS I know  we  create a sorry server.

Hi,

This is pretty simple and similar to CSS, you create a sorry server farm. The only difference is this server farm will be a redirect serverfarm.

Please find the above config guide which describes the detailed method of configuring a sorry serverfarm in ace.
