About run watch-trafficgroup-device's score

Hello Everybody

 

I perform "tmsh run /cm watch-trafficgroup-device" in TMSH command.

 

How does F5 calculate the scores？

 

root@(VE-G)(cfg-sync In Sync)(Active)(/Common)(tmos.cm) run watch-trafficgroup-device

 

devices traffic_group device_name failover_state next_active score

 

 

1 2 traffic-group-1 VE-F.aaaaaaaaaaaa.com HA_ACTIVE - 4078

 

0 traffic-group-1 VE-F.aaaaaaaaaaaa.com HA_ACTIVE - 4078

 

1 traffic-group-1 VE-G.aaaaaaaaaaaa.com HA_STANDBY True 4094

 

0 traffic-group-1 VE-G.aaaaaaaaaaaa.com HA_STANDBY True 4094

 

2 traffic-group-1 VE-G.aaaaaaaaaaaa.com HA_STANDBY True 4094

 

1 traffic-group-1 VE-H.aaaaaaaaaaaa.com HA_STANDBY - 4110

 

0 traffic-group-1 VE-H.aaaaaaaaaaaa.com HA_STANDBY - 4110

 

2 traffic-group-1 VE-H.aaaaaaaaaaaa.com HA_STANDBY - 4110

 

1 traffic-group-2 VE-F.aaaaaaaaaaaa.com HA_STANDBY True 4079

 

0 traffic-group-2 VE-F.aaaaaaaaaaaa.com HA_STANDBY True 4079

 

2 traffic-group-2 VE-F.aaaaaaaaaaaa.com HA_STANDBY True 4079

 

 

Many Thanks

    How does F5 calculate the scores？prior to 11.0.0 hf1, failover scroe is a combination of management ip and traffic group name. since 11.0.0 hf1, "load" (ID365256) is added and failover score is used to break ties.

     

     

    ID365256 - N+M: Load should never failover to an active device when a standby is available
