Metrics
A list of measurements used to determine the weight and their associated proportions. You can set multiple metrics, the proportion total must always equal 100.
  • Metric -- the metric name. An identifier for the metric collector that will collect measurements to determine the weight of the server. Please refer to the Load Balancer Administration Guide for more information regarding metrics.
  • Proportion -- sets the importance of the metric relative to the other metrics when calculating weights..
  • Request -- A string that represents a valid application request to be sent by the metric collector to an application in order to measure application response time or availability.
  • Response -- A string that represents the response that the metric collector should expect from an application. The metric collector compares the response it receives from the application to the response string to determine application response time and availability.
