iRule question for capturing simple VIP TCP stats

Colin,

 

 

Thanks for the tip. It helped get me started.

 

 

The TOTAL connections statistic was very easy to set up. The next challenge for me (not a programmer by trade) is to gather the MAXIMUM connection statistic. Our NOC personnel need to create a daily report on the TOTAL number of connections as well as the 'high water mark', or MAXIMUM number of connections. We know that each of the servers in a 4 node pool can handle about 1,000 connections before the app starts to suffer. Our customer wants to know the MAX number on a daily basis.

 

 

The NOC personnel will be able to live with retrieving and resetting the STAT profile using the GUI on a daily basis but I would like to eventually code it to write the stats to a log should they forget.

 

 

Thanks again,

 

Steve
