Check pool health
1 min read
Before directing any traffic to your pools, make sure that your pools and monitors are set up correctly. The status of your health check will be unknown until the results of the first check are available.
To confirm pool health using the dashboard:
- Go to Traffic > Load Balancing.
- Select Manage Pools.
- For pools and individual endpoints, review the values in the Health and Endpoint Health columns.
For more information on pool and endpoint health statuses, refer to How a pool becomes unhealthy.
To fetch the latest health status of all pools, use the List Pools command, paying attention to the healthy value for pools and origins (endpoints).
For troubleshooting a specific pool’s health, use the Pool Health Details command.
