Pools
BIG-IP® Reference Guide 4-17
• Associating the health check monitor with the server to gather the
metrics
• Creating or modifying the server pool to use Dynamic Ratio load
balancing
BIG-IP provides two templates that you can use to create a health monitor
for a server that uses an SNMP agent. These two monitor templates are:
• snmp_dca
Use this template when you want to use default values or specify new
values for CPU, memory, and disk metrics. When using this template,
you can also specify values for other types of metrics that you wish to
gather.
• snmp_dca_base
Use this template when you want to use default values or specify values
for metrics other than CPU, memory, and disk usage. When using this
template, values for CPU, memory, and disk metrics are omitted.
Note
For a description of these templates and the default values for each metric,
see Working with templates for EAV monitors, on page 4-142.
Figure 4.4 shows a monitor based on the snmp_dca monitor template. This
monitor uses the default metric values. A user can optionally specify
variables for user-defined metrics.
