CSM & web cache

[lpassmore]

I have a situation where an application uses a web cache which in turn sends connections to a server farm. The connections from the web cache do not seem to be balanced between the servers on the web farm. Can somebody tell me whether this is designed to work or is the default to balance on source IP?

Config:

serverfarm PRDEBS

nat server

nat client NATCLIENT

predictor leastconns

real 10.44.8.140

inservice

real 10.44.8.141

inservice

probe ORACLE_HTTP

!

!

sticky 2 cookie Session-ID timeout 1

!

sticky 3 netmask 255.255.255.255 timeout 1

!

vserver PRDEBS

virtual 10.44.9.37 any

vlan 4

serverfarm PRDEBS

sticky 2 group 1

persistent rebalance

inservice

Many Thanks

this should work.

But what do you mean by "do not seem to be balanced between the servers" ??

Is the connection always sent to the same server ?

In this case I would say this is a sticky issue [verify your sticky settings].

Or is the connection dropped ? This would be a bigger concern and we would need more info.
