how to get pool current connections statistics off of each pool member

Wassup Dev Central,

 

 

Need some help figuring out how to get pool current connections statistics off of each pool member using an irule. We're running big-ip 9.3.1 build 37.1 currently.

 

 

We would like to find out how many current connections are running on each pool member using an irule. In the mean time, I'll keep searching this site and the interwebs for the answer.

 

 

Thanks for your help,

    I don't believe the iRule will be able to track each connection to each pool member. You will most likely need to use something else such as iControl or even SNMP polling.

     

     

    I hope this helps

    Hi Wade,

     

     

    In addition to SNMP or iControl, you can list the current and cumulative connection counts for a pool and its members in the GUI under statistics and using 'b pool'.

    There is also a section in samples that has some iControls already created by many folks here:

    They might not have a specific iControls that answer your problems but they might have techniques and snippits of code that might help
