When an LTM configuration has virtual server names containing period (.), a GTM configuration with auto-discovery enabled is upgraded from v11.5.x to a later version might lose consistency.
The configuration after the upgrade might be affected in the following ways: -- Missing virtual servers. -- Deletion of some pool members. -- Virtual servers with incorrect addresses.
-- Upgrading GTM from v11.5.x to later versions (e.g., BIG-IP DNS v12.x). -- Auto-discovery is enabled. -- LTM configuration containing virtual server names containing the period character (.). -- The same virtual server name is used in multiple partitions.
There is no workaround at this time.
This release supports GTM upgrades from 11.x to BIG-IP DNS 12.x and later versions for cases where: -- Auto-discovery is enabled. -- LTM virtual server name a period character (.). -- The same virtual server name is used in multiple partitions.
