tmsh: "terminal is not fully functional"
I am getting the following warning when trying to run list sys global-settings all-properties via a tool with a "dummy" term: WARNING: terminal is not full functional /var/tmp/tmsh/xxxxx/data (press RETURN) My first question is are you are able to set the TERM environment variable via tmsh? If not, what can I do to avoid this warning? I don't get this warning on all commands, just some. Seems very weird. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.Real Least Connections iRule
Problem this snippet solves: Due to BIG-IP TMOS CMP (Clustered MultiProcessing) architecture, customers that desire least connections behavior for LB will occasionally see uneven LB behavior because each TMM is operating independently and they could (for example) each send 1 connection to pool member A for a total of 2 connections while pool member B has 0 connections. This iRule addresses this issue by using table memory to track the server with the highest number of concurrent connections (table entry "highconn") and if a new LB decision would cause that count to be exceeded, checks to see if all servers have that number of connections; if not, it will force an LB::reselect. This iRule not recommended for high connection rate virtual servers, but is useful for any application that is particularly sensitive to uneven load balancing (e.g. a terminal services or VDI scenario). How to use this snippet: Apply iRule to Virtual Server and use whichever load-balancing algorithm you desire (BIG-IP will use that to make initial LB decision); iRule will do everything it can to "force" least connections behavior.
