Hi.
I am running ver 07.4.00T12 on serveriron XL with 400 MHz Power PC processor 740 (revision 8) with 32756K bytes of DRAM. We have been running on these specs for a while now, without seeing the problem I am seeing now with a specific customer. The issue is, verified via testing. running a test against a vip, of 50 thousand requests, 1 out of 1000 are being dropped. It is not restricted to http or any particular protocol. And running the test directly against the servers themselves reveals no drops. I have checked through the foundry docs and cannot find any limit in the OS that would account for this. I have verified this problem as well on the another load balancer (to tentatively rule out hardware). I apologize for the vagueness of the question, but has anyone else experienced something similar to this? Is there a limit I'm missing here? Could it be a bug in 7.4? Thanks for any insight, as I'm kind of banging my head against a wall on this. here is the output of sh server and sh server sessions. sh server: Server Load Balancing Traffic Info Client->Server = 363526315 Server->Client = 0 Drops = 2736768 Aged = 2631474 Fw_drops = 0 Rev_drops = 0 FIN_or_RST = 56484048 old-conn = 19594 Disable_drop = 0 Exceed_drop = 0 Stale_drop = 73 Unsuccessful = 4893 TCP SYN-DEF RST = 0 Server Resets = 0 Out of Memory = 0 Out of Memory = 0 Avail.
