Creating availability profiles

Create an availability profile in PingAccess to define when a backend server is considered failed and how to handle failover.

Steps

Click Settings, then go to Networking > Availability Profiles.
Click Add Availability Profile.
In the Name field, enter a unique descriptive name for the profile.
In the Type list, select On-Demand.
1. In the Connect Timeout (MS) field, enter the number of milliseconds PingAccess should wait for a connection to be established to the target site.
  
  The default value is 10000.
2. In the Pooled Connection Timeout (MS) field, enter the number of milliseconds PingAccess should wait before timing out a pooled connection request made to the target site.
  
  The default value is -1, no timeout.
3. In the Read Timeout (MS) field, enter the number of milliseconds PingAccess should wait before timing out the read of the response from a target site.
  
  The default value is -1, no timeout.
4. In the Max Retries field, enter a number specifying how many times PingAccess should try establishing a connection to a target site before considering the target site failed.
  
  The default value is 2.
5. In the Retry Delay (MS) field, enter the number of milliseconds PingAccess should wait between retries.
  
  The default value is 250.
6. In the Failed Retry Timeout (S) field, enter a number, in seconds, specifying how long PingAccess should wait before trying to establish a connection to a failed target site again.
  
  The default value is 60.
  
  To retry a failed target site immediately, enter 0.
7. (Optional) In the Failure HTTP Status Codes section, enter any HTTP status codes that PingAccess should consider a target site failure.
  
  To enter multiple HTTP status codes, click + New Value for each status code.
  
  The order of this list isn’t important.
Click Save.
