The best practices for load balancers are detailed here.

  • Review the latest API updates to use for node status

    Starting with VMware Aria Operations 8.0, the node status API has been updated to use an optional set of services to get the aggregated statuses of the node. See VMware Aria Operations Load Balancing for the latest information.

  • Use load balancers to provide a single UI entry for users

    Use of a load balancer to provide multiple users a single URL for accessing the VMware Aria Operations cluster alleviates the need for users to remember logging into separate node names and accessing specific nodes.
