Hi Kai,

I will do this.Meanwhile following this doc viz., https://techdocs.f5.com/kb/en-us/products/big-ip_ltm/manuals/product/ltm-implementations-12-1-0/27.html  i made some changes and tested.

However still the errors keep coming in jmeter like the screenshot posted yesterday.

I made the changes in my Big IP VE ,nodes and pools.i set the following in my BIGIP VE

virtual server advanced section

And set the request queue depth to yes in pools but without any success.
