Discovery and monitoring of F5 BIG-IP
For the F5 BIG-IP load balancer, the
Server Manager
discovers the following:- Virtual IPs
- Virtual servers
- Service
- Failover pairs
- Interfaces
- Ports
- Trunks
- VLANs
- MACs
- Processors
- Memories
- Filesystems
- Power supply
- Fan
- Temperature sensor
- LoadBalancerPool
- LoadBalancerPoolMembersTheServer Managermonitors the following:
- Virtual IPs
- Virtual servers
- Availability of load balancer interfaces
- Utilization of load balancer interfaces
- Status of load balancer failover pairs
- Environmental factors, such as power supply status, CPU temperature, chassis
- Temperature and fan speed
- Available disc drive space and partitions on the Load Balancer
- Synchronization of configuration between IG-IP pairs
- LoadBalancerPool
- LoadBalancerPoolMembersTheServer Managergenerates notifications to theGlobal Managerwhen it detects failures, high utilization of CPUs, and other activity as measured against thresholds. It generates a notification when one element in a load balancer pair fails over, when the virtual servers are down or degraded, and when a virtual IP is found to be running on an inactive load balancer.
