Bug ID 1598509: iHealth client can occasionally throw a core file

Last Modified: Jun 25, 2025

Affected Product(s):
F5OS Velos(all modules)

Fixed In:
F5OS-C 1.8.1, F5OS-C 1.8.0

Opened: Jun 18, 2024

Severity: 3-Major

Symptoms

The iHealth client, accessible with the command line, system diagnostics ihealth can be used for uploading QKView files to the iHealth service. If this client loses connection to the system database for any reason, it may throw a core file, in the host system's /var/shared/core directory.

Impact

A core file may be thrown. The iHealth client will restart if this happens, so functionality is not affected.

Conditions

System has been up for a long time, and there is a problem with the ConfD database causing the iHealth client to disconnect.

Workaround

Retry the ihealth client operation.

Fix Information

The iHealth client will only access the ConfD database when it needs to query information, and not maintain an open connection.
