Remove Health Care (keepalives) CSS 11503

[rparrat666]

Hi,

We normally distribute the load between two servers by checking if the server its active (using TCP 80), yesterday, we want to remove the Health Care (keepalives) due to a maintenance test, to sent the traffic direct to the server, but the service stop working.

We think we didn’t remove the health care properly, could anybody please help me to know hoe to remove it?

We are using CSS 11503, I’m adding the config.

Thanks

you simply need to type "keepalive type none" under the service definition.

CSS11503-2(config)# service test
CSS11503-2(config-service[test])# keepalive type none
CSS11503-2(config-service[test])#

H, thank for the answer, at the beginning I thought that was the way, but alter the change, the service was down, is it normal? I was expecting to see the service up but the data going thru without checking the state.
