Opened: Jan 21, 2020

Severity: 3-Major

Symptoms

Mcpd restarts and produces a core file.

Impact

Mcpd crash and restart results in high availability (HA) failover.

Conditions

This can occur while adding a pool member to a NAPTR GTM pool where the flag used is an uppercase 'A' or 'S' character.

Workaround

Use a lowercase 'a' or 's' as the flag value.

Fix Information

Mcpd no longer crashes under these conditions. The flag value is always stored in lowercase regardless of the case used as input in the REST call or tmsh command, etc.
