Fail Over in Web Publishing

Hi,
I would like to have a Web Publishing Rule with fail over mechanism i.e. When Website 1 is down route the request to Website 2 and I don't want to do the Load Balancing.
Is it possible to have a rule that route the request based on statuscode from Website 1.

Hi,
you don't want to use TMG Webserver Load Balancing?

Hi Marc,
Thanks for your reply, I am not looking for Load Balancing ( balancing the traffic to all the available servers in the farm ). My aim is to route all the traffic to one web server and if that fails route it to a second web server or a static page.

Hi,
Thank you for the post.
As far as I know, TMG server has not such a feature that will auto detect the status of the web site and reroute the path.

You could use Application Request Routing in IIS to perform this function, http://www.iis.net/learn/extensions/planning-for-arr/using-the-application-request-routing-module
