When attempting to delete a GTM monitor, the system indicates that it is in use, even after removing that monitor from all GTM virtual servers. The system posts a message similar to the following: 01070083:3: Monitor /Common/mon-A is in use.
Cannot delete the unused monitor.
1. Attach a GTM monitor to multiple GTM virtual servers in the same transaction, where both of the virtual servers are monitoring the same ip:port. 2. Remove the monitor from all virtual servers. 3. Attempt to delete the monitor from the configuration.
After removing the monitor from all virtual servers, reload the GTM configuration using the following command: tmsh load sys config gtm-only You can now delete the monitor.
You can now delete an unused GTM monitor, if that monitor was attached to multiple GTM virtual servers of the same ip+port combination.
