Opened: Apr 20, 2016
Severity: 3-Major

Symptoms

While configuring an alert for Maximum TPS on an Analytics profile, you get an error: Metric "Maximum TPS" can only be used with Virtual Servers (but not with a Pool Member)

Impact

You cannot configure Max TPS alerts at the pool member level. The GUI appears to allow you to do this, but validation rules will prevent you from adding the alert. The full list of alerts that cannot be configured at the pool or application level include all rules with the word Maximum in them: - Maximum TPS - Maximum Server Latency - Maximum Page Load Time - Maximum Request Throughput - Maximum Response Throughput

Conditions

This occurs when attempting to add an Analytics alert that triggers on Max TPS, and the alert is configured to run against a pool member or an application (the default is Virtual Server, not pool member or application).
