Hi Peter, Aaron,

 

 

Fresh from the LTM course and we have just implemented F5 in our network. We are running active/active with traffic profiles so we can manipulate the primary route of traffic to the right site, as we also have active/active data centres.

 

 

We are harldly running anything through thiese boxes yet but the memory allocation is 32%. Does the 50% threshold for active/active implementations apply to memory or just CPU?

 

 

What parameters do you think we should check to ensure our failover is within limits?
