Finding Virtual Server/Wide IP by just server names
Hi all,
I have been given a server which was malfunctioning, at that time I wasn't given any VIP details. The issue has now been fixed but it took two hours as the person requesting was fishing out the VIP details.
Just wanted to check if one is given a server, is there any way we can figure out what Virtual Server or WideIP that belongs to.
Hello Adhil,
I don't know about WIPs, but I think you could track down what virtual server is assigned to a server by backtracking through the bigip.conf file in CLI.
Open up bigip.conf in vi, and search for your pool member/server. Once you've found the entry, look at which pools it is a part of. Then you can search for that pool and find out which virtual server it is attached to.
Here's a guide on vi if you don't feel super comfortable navigating through it.
Feel free to ask if you have any follow-up questions,
Austin
