BIG_IP_NEXT(CM) MA-CM
Known Affected Versions:
20.3.0
Opened: Oct 08, 2024 Severity: 2-Critical
When you set up NFS external storage, the ownership of the /opt/cm-backup and /opt/cm-qkview directories is changed from admin:admin to root:root. This causes Central Manager backups and QKViews to fail.
Backups and QKViews in BIG-IP Next Central Manager may fail.
NFS external storage was configured before the upgrade.
Run the following commands in the BIG-IP Next Central Manager CLI to correct ownership: - sudo chown -R admin:admin /opt/cm-backup - sudo chown -R admin:admin /opt/cm-qkview
None
