Server Status - Field Help
Current Statistics
- Server
- The server is the unique IP address of the TCP server machine as either a
symbolic name or in dotted-decimal format. If you use a
unique name that does not resolve to an IP address, you must provide the server
address.
- Server address
- The unique IP address of the TCP server machine as either a host name or in
dotted-decimal format. If the server is not resolvable, you must provide the address
of the physical server machine.
- Port number
- The number of the port to which this server is defined.
- Cluster
- The cluster name or address to which clients connect. The cluster value is either a
symbolic name or in dotted-decimal format. A cluster value of 0.0.0.0 can be used to
specify a wildcard cluster. Please refer to the "Use a wildcard cluster to combine server
configurations" section in the
Load Balancer Administration Guide
for more information.
- Quiesced status
- Specifies whether any more connections are being sent to a server.
If the server is quiesced. no connections are being sent.
- Map port
- The port that you are using for load balancing.
Allows a client's request to be received on one port and to be transmitted on
a different port on the server machine. You can load balance client requests to multiple server
daemons running on the same physical machine.
- Total Connections
- The total number of connections on this server.
- Connections per second
- The current number of connections per second on this server as calculated by the manager.
Note: The manager must be running.
The following server listener fields apply only when a WAS configuration file is mapped to
the CBR configuration.
- Listener New Weight
- The server weight generated by the current manager cycle.
- Listner Weight
- The server weight generated during the previous manager cycle.
Configuration Settings
Edit any of the values on the Configuration Settings tab, then click Update Configuration.
- Current status
- The current status of the server. Possible values are:
- Server weight
- The weight for this server. This weight is used in load balancing between servers on
the same port. The default value is 10. The server weights cannot be updated while the manager is
running, unless the server has a fixed weight. If the fixed weight value is no, the
server weight will be set by the manager.
- Fixed weight
- Indicates whether the server weight should stay fixed when
the manager is running. The default is no. When fixed weight value is specified as
no, the manager adjusts the weight for this
server for optimal performance. If fixed weight is yes, the server weight is remains unchanged
and is not updated by the manager.
- Sticky for rule
- Default is yes, which specifies that the server stays sticky when the
port is designated as sticky. Setting this option to no (non-stick) overrides
the sticky affinity of the port when a request is routed to a server that is
experiencing an overflow.
- HTTP Advisor Request
- This field holds the string that is used by the HTTP advisor to query the health of
the servers. The value defaults to HEAD / HTTP/1.0. It is present for all servers, but it
is valid only for servers that are advised upon by the HTTP advisor.
Note: This field is disabled until an HTTP advisor is started.
- HTTP Advisor Response
- This field holds the string that is used by the HTTP advisor to compare to the real
response received from the server. The default is HEAD / HTTP/1.0.
Note: This field is available only after you start an HTTP advisor.
- Cookie Value
- An arbitrary value set by the administrator that represents the server
side of the cookie name/cookie value pair. The cookie value, along with the
cookie name, acts as an identifier to Load Balancer allowing Network
Dispatcher to send subsequent requests of a Web Site to the same server machine.

- List of server metrics
- A list of system metrics added to the server and the results
of executing those metrics on the server.
