CPU showing controled peaks (5 in 5 minutes or 10 in 10 minutes)
Hi.
I had experience with some F5s with differents BIG-IP versions(up to 11.5.x) and hardware.
Some BIG-IPs show CPU monitor giving a peak to 100% 5 in 5 minutes for some seconds.
I also had experience with another versions and hardware show peaks 10 in 10 minutes and I also see some BIG-IPs without this peaks.
For example, right now I'm in a customer implementing 2x4200 in cluster with v11.5.1 HF10. As I said both hardwares are in a Sync and failover group with same big ip version and load balance objects. The only difference between is the self ips. The systems are working in active/active mode. Each one have almost the same number of connections and SSL processes as the other.
Right now the CPU monitor from one of the systems is showing a peak in each 5 minutes, and the other one is not showing this behavior.
Please, any explanation for this controlled peak? It look like there is nor rules for that, or I'm missing something.
Thanks.
