Simulating the health of services can be pain if we should install and turn them on/off the real services such HTTP Server, SSH Server, FTP, etc one-by-one on each VM. In this experiment I just faking 2 services which are: HTTP and SSH. Based on this simple topology we would end up with:

Services which Monitored

  • VM 1
    • HTTP
    • PING
  • VM 2
    • HTTP (Simulate the Always 404 Error)
    • PING
  • VM 3
    • HTTP
    • PING
    • SSH
