Access to WMI Metrics

Hello Folks!

 

I want to load balance my 2 IIS servers based on CPU% utilization. I Know that the Dynamic Ratio LB Method uses Metrics in order to make LB decisions So in order to use this LB method I first installed the F5.IsHendler.DLL plug-in on both my servers, then created a custom WMI monitor which I assigned to both of my nodes( they turned green right away so I assumed the monitor is working) and finally created a pool with both of my servers.

 

My Question is:

 

  1. How can you view/access the Metrics reported to he BIG-IP by the IIS through the WMI monitor?

     

  2. Is it possible to have an scenario where if server 1 reaches 70% CPU utilization it will be mark as unavailable by the monitor?

     

Very much appreciate any feedback

 

Pura Vida!
