These graphs display the connections, bytes, bits or packets, depending on choice. The buttons in the top right of the page toggle which values are displayed. The values displayed for the Real Server comprise of the values for all the Virtual Services accessing the Real Server.
If the Real Server has been assigned to more than one Virtual
Service, you can view the statistics for each Real Server by Virtual Service by
clicking the arrow (
) to the right of the number in the first column. This
expands the view to show the statistics for each Virtual Service on the Real
Server.
VS: The VS column is automatically populated based on a DNS lookup.
RS/VS: This column displays the IP address of the Real Servers and Virtual Services.
Clicking the links in the RS/VS: column displays another screen containing a number of statistics specific to that Real Server or Virtual Service. For further details, refer to the section: Real Server or Virtual Service Statistics.
RS Port: Displays the port of the Real Server.
Status: This shows the status of the Real Server.
Adaptive: This will only be displayed if an adaptive scheduling method has been selected for a Virtual Service. This column will display the adaptive value.
Weight: This will only be displayed if the scheduling method is set to resource based (SDN adaptive) in a Virtual Service. The information which is gathered from the controller determines what the Adaptive value is set to. As the adaptive value goes up, the weight of the Real Server goes down. If all adaptive values are the same, all weights are the same. When the adaptive values are different the weights will change. The weight of the Real Servers determines where traffic is sent. If a Real Server is configured in multiple Virtual Services, two numbers are displayed for the weight - the first shows the average of the current weights over all Virtual Services that the Real Server is configured in. The second shows the number of Virtual Services that the Real Server is configured in. For example, a Weight of 972/2 means that the average weight of a Real Server which is configured in two Virtual Services is 972.
