Least Connections using Available App Instances

Why do you limit web A to App a.b.c and web B to App d,e,f?

 

 

Assuming (From the context) that WebA and WebB have the same content, why not simply let both web servers use a pool of all 6 app servers?

 

 

Apart from that, I'm not sure I follow what you want to do 100%. Are you saying you want to promote the unavailability of say appE so that webA now gets 3/5's of the load and webB gets 2/5's? If so, I'd recommend an external monitor on the web servers to set the dynamic ratios of the poolmembers based on the number of poolmembers in the app server pools... (And use dynamic ratio (By PoolMember) on the webserver pool...

For this example, I significantly scaled down the number of app servers...I actually have 40 web servers and 160 app servers...different web servers use different app servers because of WebLogic Domain limitations. I'll look at dynamic ratio with external monitors quick. After looking at external monitors and dynamic ratio - I'm even more confused. My understanding for dynamic is that I need to be using snmp, wmi, or a real_server monitor...none of which I have in this case. Also, I'm not clear on how to configure an external monitor for this purpose either.
