You installed load balancers to ensure the availability of your web sites. But how do you know your load balancers are performing correctly? If there is a surge in traffic, do you know which Virtual IP is responsible?
LogicMonitor provides unique Software-as-a-Service, configuration free monitoring of all datacenter load balancers.
It provides detailed monitoring and alerting specific to load balancers such as:
- Citrix Netscalers
- F5 Bip IPs
- Barracuda Load Balancer
- CAI Networks WebMux
- and more.
If you see a large spike in traffic volume on your load balancers, it’s easy to determine which VIP is getting the extra traffic with automatically generated overview graphs.
The health of the load balancers is also monitored – synchronization status in high availability pairs, power supply and fan status, as well as CPU, Memory usage, global requests, client and server connections, etc.
Using Netscalers as an example (similar data is reported for other load balancers, depending on their capabilities), with no configuration, LogicMonitor provides monitoring and alerting of:
- CPU and Memory usage
- Global requests
- Connection queue depth
- DoS statistics
- Monitoring of all VIPs (connections, requests, throughput, performance)
- Discovery of enabled features (integrated caching, GSLB, etc) and comprehensive monitoring (Cache hit rate, Cache Memory and performance analysis, etc)
- Discovery and charting/alerting of all active interfaces (including aggregated interfaces)
- Global health (high availability status, NTP, disks, reachability, etc)
And like all devices monitored by LogicMonitor, the configuration is automatically kept up to date.Free Trial Eliminate the chance of your customers knowing about outages before you, because a VIP was not added to the monitoring system. Get monitoring that frees up time, and keeps up with your dynamic environment – LogicMonitor.
