Goal

We have an Java sockets based application, the application receives requests (sockets) with a specific expected content, when this application was migrated to Exalogic a cluster configuration using OTD was deployed to create a high available cluster (OTD in front of two vServers running our Java application). When the OTD health check mechanism creates a socket to our application this socket is closed without writing anything, causing the following error in our application.

 

The question is: Is it possible using OTD to write a custom message in the healthcheck socket before the socket closure?
