Bug ID 2230841: Admd Crash During Restart Under Heavy Load

Last Modified: Jun 13, 2026

Affected Product(s):
BIG-IP ASM(all modules)

Fixed In:
17.5.1.6, 17.1.3.2

Opened: Mar 09, 2026

Severity: 3-Major

Symptoms

Admd crash during the restart process.

Impact

Core is created, though there is no functionality problem, as the admd was on its way to restart itself

Conditions

Under heavy system load, if the admd anomaly process hangs, the system triggers an admd restart. However, the shutdown sequence does not release objects in the correct order, potentially causing a crash. Introducing a proper shutdown sequence resolves this issue.

Workaround

None

Fix Information

BADOS restarts performing a silent shutdown.
