• If this value is 0, a check is made that "period_until_measure" has elapsed since the last time a
measurement was taken. "period_until_measure" is a variable that specifies the number of
"lbalance_period_wakeup_sec" periods to wait until a new measurement is taken.
This value is increased by 1 each time a new measurement is taken and the load values were not used, until the
maximum of 1200 is reached.
Note about the load balancing agent
Unix
The load agent service must be added to the inetd.conf file (see product documentation)
The program retrieves the load average value and converts it to a number between 0 to 231.
NT
The load agent service must be added through the Services dialog box.
The program retrieves the privileged time percentage, and re-scales it to the 0-231 range.
