68 Chapter 4 Configuring Clusters
Viewing a cluster’s load status
JRun/ColdFusion reports its load data directly to ClusterCATS. You can view the load on
the servers at any time using the Server Load Monitor.
To view your cluster’s current load levels:
1 Open the ClusterCATS Explorer and select a cluster.
2 Select Monitor > Load or right-click the cluster you have selected and select Monitor
> Load .
The Server Loads dialog box appears, showing the current load status for each cluster
member in the cluster that you selected:
The load monitor shows three lines:
•
Top line (red): Peak load threshold
•
Middle line (yellow): Gradual Redirection load threshold
•
Bottom line (green): JRun/ColdFusion server load
Adjusting load threshold settings graphically
You can view and set threshold settings of a cluster member using the Server Load
Monitor’s visual display. To set or change threshold settings, use the mouse to drag the
Peak (red) and Gradual Redirection (yellow) threshold lines to their settings instead of
entering numeric values in fields
To configure load threshold settings using the Server Load dialog box:
1 Open the ClusterCATS Explorer and select a server.
2 Select Monitor > Load or right-click the server and select Monitor > Load .
