Practical Connection load balance is not as per theory in ratio (member) load balance method

I have created pool of three members (1:3:1) and when testing the load balancing it is not sending the connection to the member as per theory but yes if checked after specific interval of time it shows connection count as per ratio. But when checking one by one, packet not passing to member as expected.

    Hi,

     

    I would check the VS and see if there is a OneConnect Profile configured on the VS.

     

    OneConnect re-uses a idle connection to the backend server so a load balancing decision is not made.

     

    I would also look at Persistency Profiles on the VS.

    Hi,

     

    when using ratio, each TMM (CPU instance) use really ratio method, but does not share the last pool member chosen with other TMM...
