Oct 08, 2011Connection history for a virtual server
I'd like to implement something that keeps connection history for each virtual server. The purpose being to have a way to determine the low traffic points for each VS and thereby the best time to work on them.
I've used HSL to implement connection logging for purposes of recording which server each client was sent to so presumably if I sent that to the right package I could graph or table the info to get what I want.
Good solution? What package would graph the log input for me?
Is there a better solution with SNMP or iControl?

I'll try the MIB though it will probably be a couple of days as I've got a priority ASA/VPN config at the front of the queue. - hoolio

If you don't need details on each HTTP request/response or connection, I'd use Nitass's suggestion for polling the virtual server connections via SNMP. This should be a more efficient option than using HSL.
