I'm trying to setup the monitor pages on a VMWare NSX load balancer. The issue is that we are pointing at 2 IIS nodes that are using host header binding and the Service Monitor can't access the monitor pages.
I have configured an F5 load balancer to do the same thing and we were able to specify a send string that contains the host name so it new which website to point at but I can't seem to get the NSX load balancer to send the host name with the request.
Anyone know how to do this?
SOLVED
I ended up figuring it out myself. There is a way for you to pass the Host header information with the NSX load balancer service monitors.
The NSX Service Monitor config is as follows:
Type: HTTPS
Expected: 200
Method: GET
URL: /monitor.html HTTP/1.1\r\nHost:bla.yourcompany.com
