  5. Scenario • Set the load-balancing method for the targeted LTM Pool to “Ratio (member)” • Start by setting the Ratio on both LTM Pool Members to 1 • Provision LTM Pool Member 1 (virtual machine) with 2GB of RAM • Provision LTM Pool Member 2 (virtual machine) with 4GB of RAM • See how the load balancing ratios on LTM Pool Member 1 and LTM Pool Member 2 get updated (automatically) to 33 and 67 respectively, following the capacity (total memory) of the LTM Pool Members
