Kurt G - Thank You! Yes the URL in the Admin guide looks like it has the "hello,secars" portion of the URL transposed as "secars,hello". I just got off the phone with Symantec tech support and after about 90 minutes of explanation and testing we figured out that the hello needs to come first in order to get the "OK" response
I was told that the Symantec tech suppt database would be updated with info regarding this issue, and I hope that is the case becasue anybody that wants to load balance the SEP 11 Managers using F5 local or global traffic managers would definietly be interested in this information in order to set up the best health check for this application.
Hopefully the Administration Guide will be corrected in future versions as well.
Thanks again, Ken
