Which metrics graph in the Virtual Service Analytics page will show the rate of 5xx errors?

The rate of 5xx errors, which are server-side HTTP response codes indicating a server failure, is displayed in the Virtual Service Analytics page. Specifically, the "Server Responses" metrics graph shows a breakdown of total server responses into categories like "Good," "Errors," and "Timed Out." The "Errors" category in this graph includes all 4xx (client-side) and 5xx (server-side) error responses, providing a direct visualization of the rate at which they occur. This allows an administrator to quickly identify issues with backend application servers.

A. End-to-End Timing: This graph shows latency broken down into components like Client RTT, Server RTT, and Application Response Time. It does not show error rates.

C. Client RTT: This metric specifically measures the network latency between the client and the Service Engine. It does not reflect server-side error codes.

D. Throughput: This graph displays the amount of data transferred over time (e.g., in Mbps). It is a measure of traffic volume, not error status.

2. VMware NSX Advanced Load Balancer Documentation, "Metrics List," Metric ID: l4server.httprspcode5xx. This official metric tracks the number of 5xx error codes from the server, which is aggregated into the "Server Responses" graph.
