Abstract
When a cloud services provider infrastructure (CSPI) receives a request from an administrator to perform an operation on an appliance, a load balancer may select a first server within the CSPI to process the request. If the first server does not have a connection with the appliance, the first server may generate a redirect response that includes server identification information identifying a particular server having a pre-established connection with the appliance. The first server may send the redirect response to the application that the administrator used to send the request. The application may then generate a second request that includes the server identification information, and send the second request to the CSPI. A load balancer in the CSPI may then forward the second request to the particular server, and the particular server may use the pre-established connection to send a request to the appliance requesting performance of the operation.
