Current Statistics
To refresh statistics at any time, click Refresh Statistics.
- Cluster
- The unique identifier of the cluster associated with this server. If you use a unique name
that does not resolve to an IP address, you must provide the cluster address.
- Cluster address
- The IP address of this cluster.
- Total packets received
- Total number of packets received by the cluster.
- Packets forwarded
- Total number of packets, destined for this cluster, that are forwarded to a server.
- Packets generated
- Total number of packets generated by Load Balancer for the cluster.
These packets include ICMP packets that
Load Balancer sends out to request information.
Generated packets are packets that are not received from a client.
- Packets discarded
- Packets arriving at the Load Balancer machine, destined for the cluster address,
but are discarded by Load Balancer because either the port:
- Did not exist
- Existed but had no servers configured to it
- Packets processed locally
- Total number of packets to be processed locally by Load Balancer.
- Packets with errors
- Total number of packets discarded due to packet error. For example, if the packet headers are too
short, the packets are discarded.
- Connections per second
- The current number of connections per second for this cluster.
Proportions
Edit any of the values on the Proportions tab, then click Update Configuration.
Note: The weight of the active connections, plus the weight of the new connections, plus the weight
of advisor information, plus the weight of the system monitoring program information must total 100.
- Proportion given to active connections:
- A number from 0-100 representing the proportion of weight to be given to the active connections.
- Proportion given to new connections:
- A number from 0-100 representing the proportion of weight to be given to the new connections. The
default value is 50.
- Proportion given specific to the port:
- A number from 0-100 representing the proportion of weight to be given to the information coming
from an advisor about a port. The default value is 0.
- Proportion given to system metrics:
- A number from 0-100 representing the proportion of weight to be given to the information from the
system metrics, such as from metric server. The default value is 0.
- Sum of proportions (must be 100):
- The sum of the above proportions. This total must equal 100.
- List of system metrics
- Current list of metric values and their proportions
To remove a system metric, highlight the system metric in the list and click Remove System Metric.
Lists
- List of Ports
- Current list of ports and the number of servers running on those ports.
To remove a port, highlight the port in the list and click Remove.
