Hi LBaaS'ers,

With the current capability to associate multiple health monitors with a pool, it does not seem possible to see which specific health monitor has detected an issue. For example, If I have a PING and HTTP monitor and the HTTP monitor fails how can the user or admin have visibility into the specific failure?

"When a pool has several monitors associated with it, each member of the pool is monitored by all these monitors. If any monitor declares the member as unhealthy, then the member status is changed to INACTIVE and the member won't participate in its pool's load balancing. In other words, ALL monitors must declare the member to be healthy for it to stay ACTIVE. "

Member status changing to INACTIVE does not describe the reason why.  Would  it make sense to have a member status reason with the reference to the health monitor id in this case? We could then see which health monitor is failing and allow the user or admin to take appropriate action.
