Configuring health probes to the real servers allows you to determine if the real servers are operating correctly. The health of a real server is categorized as follows:
*Active - The real server responds appropriately.
*Suspect - The real server is unreachable or returns an invalid response. The probes are retried.
*Failed - The real server fails to reply after a specified number of consecutive retries. You are notified and the CSM adjusts incoming connections accordingly. Probes continue to a failed server until the server becomes active again.
