number of tcp connections on a pool member

use LocalLB.PoolMember.get_statistics() for the given pool member and look through the returned statistics for the STATISTIC_SERVER_SIDE_CURRENT_CONNECTIONS statistic.

 

 

I wrote a tech tip on graceful server shutdowns that query the current connections for a specific pool member. It's written in PowerShell but you should be able to extract the logic for use in Java.

Look for the Disable-Member code snippet.

 

 

Hope this helps...

hey Joe i'm kinda stuck trying to convert this line in java

$MemberStatisticsA = (Get-F5.iControl).LocalLBPoolMember.get_statistics( (, $pool_name), $MemberDefAofA);

I tried to use:

iControl.LocalLBPoolMember lb;   
   

but when I tested lb.get_statistics, it does not exist.

I tried using this one here:

iControl.LocalLBPoolMemberMemberStatistics ms;   
   ms.getStatistics();  
     
    

but that method does not have any input parameters

and it returns a LocalLBPoolMemberMemberStatisticEntry[] array

The lb.get_statistics() method should exist. Did you pass in the correct parameters (a 1-D array of pool names, and a 2-D array of pool members for each pool in the first parameter)?

 

 

Your second example is referencing a structure (LocalLBPoolMemberMemberStatistics). The getStatistics() is a local member accessor. The structure is what is returned from the get_statsitics() method.

 

 

I'll whip you up some java code in the morning.

Oops, forgot that Axis1 has no direct conversion from the PortType class. You'll need to create local variables for the *PortType classes to make the method calls.

 

 

Here's some code that will take a bigip, it's credentials, as well as a pool name and then enumerate through all pool members for their statistics and print it all to the console.

 

 

public void GetPoolMemberStats(String bigip, String username, String password, String pool_name) 
   throws RemoteException, java.lang.Exception { 
  
   iControl.Interfaces interfaces = new iControl.Interfaces(); 
     
   if (interfaces.initialize(bigip, (long)443, username, password) ) { 
      
     String [] pool_list = new String[] {pool_name}; 
      
     iControl.LocalLBPoolMemberPortType t = interfaces.getLocalLBPoolMember(); 
     iControl.LocalLBPoolMemberMemberStatistics [] memberStatsA = 
       t.get_all_statistics(pool_list); 
      
     for(int i=0; i     { 
       System.out.println("Pool " + pool_list[ i ]); 
        
       iControl.LocalLBPoolMemberMemberStatisticEntry [] statEntryA = memberStatsA[ i ].getStatistics(); 
       for(int j=0; j       { 
         iControl.CommonIPPortDefinition memberDef = statEntryA[j].getMember(); 
         System.out.println("+ " + memberDef.getAddress() + 
           memberDef.getPort()); 
          
         iControl.CommonStatistic[] statisticsA =  
           statEntryA[j].getStatistics(); 
          
         for(int k=0; k         { 
           iControl.CommonStatisticType type = statisticsA[k].getType(); 
           iControl.CommonULong64 ul64 = statisticsA[k].getValue(); 
            
           long value = (long)(ul64.getHigh()<<32) + (long)ul64.getLow(); 
            
           System.out.println("    " + type.toString() + " -> " + value); 
         } 
       } 
     } 
   } 
 }

 

 

If you need to request a specific pool member, you can go this route and just filter out the other ones, or you could call the get_statistics() method instead of the get_all_statistics() method and pass in a second parameter that is a 2-d array with the first dimension for each requested pool, and a second dimension for the list of pool members for each respective pool.

 

 

Hope this helps and please post if you get stuck again.

this really helped! thanks Joe!
