After rebooting the BIG-IP system, the 'Last Error' field in the /var/log/ltm log for a TCP monitor shows as empty (null) following the first occurrence of the monitor's down status. mcpd[6893]: 01070638:5: Pool /Common/http_pool member /Common/192.168.10.71:80 monitor status down. [ /Common/my_tcp_monitor: down; last error: ] [ was up for 0hr:0min:41sec ]
