After a system reboot or TMM restart, LTM policies referencing an external data-group may not execute correctly, regardless of a successful matching condition. This can cause a wide range of issues, including misrouted traffic, unshaped traffic, the bypassing of ASM, or complete traffic failure (based on the policy actions). Note that if a virtual server references multiple LTM policies, and only some of those policies reference an external data-group, all LTM policies attached to the virtual server will be affected.
LTM policies may be unable to execute the appropriate action on a successful matching condition, leading to a wide range of traffic-impacting consequences.
-- LTM policy with an external data-group configured on a virtual server. -- System reboot or TMM restart.
Remove and re-add the affected policy to the desired virtual-server. Alternatively, to fix a wider number of affected virtual servers in one go, reload the system configuration by executing 'tmsh load sys config'.
TMM now loads LTM policies with external data-groups as expected.
