Dynamic Ratio using WMI

Question regarding F5isapi.dll usage and commands and metrics that are used in the WMI monitor.

 

 

We're looking at publishing a custom WMI Metric on our back-end servers, but I noticed some documentation on WMI monitors that may be a road-block for us.

 

 

Are the commands and metrics listed in the manual (link below) the only ones that the F5 can pull? Or can it poll custom ones as well?

I'm looking to load-balance primarily on a TermID, issued to back-end server by DB2. There are only X amount available on each server, but we still want to send traffic to the servers even if they exceed the termID limit (even if it's a connection that would try to make a MQ connection on DB2 and thus get a TermID).

 

 

Thanks, Chris
