Severity: 2-Critical

Symptoms

On a VIPRION cluster, if a single transaction creates a policy with the name Drafts/NAME, publishes the policy, and attaches the policy to a virtual server, mcpd restarts on the secondary blades.

Impact

mcpd restarts on all secondary blades of a cluster.

Conditions

-- VIPRION chassis with more than one blade. -- Single mcp transaction that: * Creates a policy with 'Drafts/' as part of the policy name. * Publishes that policy. * Attaches that policy to a virtual server, either in the same transaction or a later transaction.

Workaround

You can use either of the following workarounds: -- Do not create policies with 'Drafts/' in the name. -- Do not create and publish a policy in the same transaction.
