Guidelines
A health check is essentially a scheduled rule that sends the same request to each
server member. The successful completion of the health check requires that the
server passes normal TCP and HTTP connection criteria, depending on check type
(servers in the load balancer group). Optionally, the health check contains a filter to
test the response from the server. If the filter accepts the response, the server is
considered to be healthy; otherwise, it is considered to be convalescent.
