LTM View Persistence Connections Timers CLI

Use this command to view persistence records:

tmsh show /ltm persistence persist-records

The existence of a persistence record does not necessarily mean that there will be an open connection related to that client. The persistence record simply tells LTM which pool member to use if the client makes another request.

Connection timeout is controlled by the virtual servers tcp profile.

Hi

tmsh show /ltm persistence persist-records all-properties

output will show you a row with age it will tell you the how much time has passed in reference to persistence timeout configured on virtual .

Thank you for your answer.

Is this meaning that persistence counter starts to count after client session is closed?

For example, we have persistence per source IP and 45 min timeout. Client opens the connection and close browser after 5 minutes.

How long persistence for this clinet to same pool member will be valid?

Hi,

Yes normally the client if connects within 45 minutes will connect to same server\pool member.. But it is not the case, then please make sure to create a new tcp profile (with 45 minutes as idle timeout) attached to the virtual server..Default TCP timeout is 5minutes..

no. i understand persistence record is created when server is connected.

OK, thank you for your answers.
