explaining show ip slb real details

[yueric]

I didn't know the command filed of show ip slb real deails :

192.168.2.10, WEBFARM, state = OPERATIONAL

conns = 114, maxconns = 4294967295, minconns = 0

weight = 8, weight(admin) = 8, metric = 14, remainder = 2

total conns established = 264898, total conn failures = 9641

what's the meaning of "metric","remainder","total conn failure"?Any reply will be very appreciated.

[Gilles Dufour]

The metric and remainder parameters are really part

of the internals of the leastconns algorithm for determining when to choose a new real.

This it not very useful. Developpers may need when debugging specific issues related to least conn.

Conn failures is when a connection attempt to the server failed - no response to SYN.
