Editing HTTP Health Checks

Complete the following steps to Edit an HTTP Health Check monitor:

  1. Go to Configure > Networking > DNS > DTC > DTC Health Checks.

  2. Select the HTTP Health Check monitor and click Edit.

  3. Modify the following settings and click Save & Close:

    • Name: Enter a name for the HTTP health monitor.

    • Description: Enter a description for the health monitor.

    • Use HTTPS: Toggle to Enabled to use HTTPs.

    • Port: Specify a port number.

    • HTTP Request: Specify the HTTP request.

    • Status Code(s): Choose Any for any status code. Choose Equal and specify the status codes.

    • Interval (seconds): Enter the interval value in seconds. The health monitor runs only for the specified interval and it is measured from the begining of the previous monitor cycle. The default value is 15.

    • Timeout (seconds): Enter the timeout value in seconds. The monitor waits for the number of seconds that you specify after sending a request. If the monitor does not receive a response within the number of seconds that you specify, then it considers this check as failed. The monitor discards any response it receives after the timeout. The default value is 10.

    • Retries for Healthy Status: Enter an integer value. This value determines how many valid responses or good health checks in a row must be received by the monitor from the DTC server.

    • Retries for Down Status: Enter an integer value. It is the opposite of the Retries for Healthy Status count. This value determines how many unhealthy status health checks (server is unavailable) in a row must be collected by the monitor from the DTC server.
