Fixed In:
16.0.0

Opened: Apr 18, 2019

Severity: 3-Major

Symptoms

mcpd is in a restart loop after creating an internal DNSSEC FIPS key on a secondary GTM while rebooting the primary DNSSEC key generator GTM (gtm.peerinfolocalid==0).

Impact

mcpd is in a restart loop.

Conditions

New DNSSEC internal FIPS key is created and assigned to DNSSEC zone when BIG-IP system with gtm.peerinfolocalid==0 is down.

Workaround

For maintenance window operations, set DNSSEC peer leader to the unit that will remain UP while rebooting the primary key generator in sync group (gtm.peerinfolocalid==0). # tmsh modify gtm global-settings general peer-leader <gtm-server-name> After the reboot is complete, all devices are back up, and everything looks good in the configs, clear the peer-leader setting: # tmsh modify gtm global-settings general peer-leader none If there are two GTM units: GTM1 (having gtm.peerinfolocalid == 0), GTM2, and you are going to reboot GTM1, then before rebooting, run the following command to configure the DNSSEC peer-leader setting: # tmsh modify gtm global-settings general peer-leader GTM2 After reboot, clear the peer-leader setting: # tmsh modify gtm global-settings general peer-leader none
