Measures reported by F5TmmDetailsTest

In large infrastructures where too many servers are connected to the traffic manager, monitoring the individual statistics of each server becomes tedious for the administrators. Therefore, administrators would need a unified system where they would be able to view the overall load balancing statistics of their infrastructure. This is where the F5TmmDetailsTest test helps.

This test periodically alerts the administrators of the data/packet traffic to and from the client/server, connections that are currently active on the client/server, total connections from the client/server etc. This way, administrators will be able to view the overall performance and effieicieny of the traffic manager and be alerted proactively on load balancing issues, if any.

The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
Client_bytes_out Indicates the rate at which data is transmitted from the client to the server through this TMM during the last measurement period. MB/Sec  
Client_bytes_in Indicates the rate at which data is received from the client by the server through this TMM during the last measurement period. MB/Sec  
Client_pkts_out Indicates the rate at which packets were transmitted from the client through this TMM during the last measurement period. Packets/Sec  
Client_pkts_in Indicates the rate at which packets were received from the client in this TMM during the last measurement period. Packets/Sec  
Client_active_conns Indicates the number of connections from the client that are currently active in this TMM. Number  
Client_tot_conns Indicates the total number of connections from the client that were established on this TMM since the restart of the traffic manager. Number  
Client_conn_rate Indicates the number of connections that were established during the last measurement period. Number  
Client_conns_usage Indicates the percentage of connections from the client that were used by this TMM. Percent  
Client_max_conns Indicates the maximum number of client connections that were established on this TMM since the restart of the traffic manager. Number  
Server_bytes_out Indicates the rate at which data is transmitted from the server through this TMM during the last measurement period. MB/Sec  
Server_bytes_in Indicates the rate at which data is received from the server by this TMM during the last measurement period. MB/Sec  
Server_pkts_out Indicates the rate at which packets were transmitted from the server through this TMM during the last measurement period. Packets/Sec  
Server_pkts_in Indicates the rate at which packets were received from the servedr by this TMM during the last measurement period. Packets/Sec  
Server_active_conns Indicates the number of connections from the server that are currently active on this TMM. Number  
Server_tot_conns Indicates the total number of connections from the server that were established since the start of the traffic manager. Number  
Server_conn_rate Indicates the rate at which connections from the server were established during the last meaasurement period. Conns/Sec  
Server_conns_usage Indicates the percentage of connection from the server that were used by this TMM. Percent  
Server_max_conns Indicates the maximum number of connections that were eatablished from the server since the start of the traffic manager. Number
