When a TCP virtual server, or a UDP virtual server without datagram-LB mode enabled, runs an iRule which suspends itself, and the traffic that virtual server is handling is destined for the DNS cache, subsequent responses attempting to execute an iRule crash TMM because the first response is suspended. Those subsequent responses should be queued before attempting to execute the iRule.
Traffic disrupted while tmm restarts.
Configuration contains TCP virtual server, or a UDP virtual server without datagram-LB mode enabled running DNS cache and suspending iRules or there is iRule execution error.
Enable datagram-LB mode on the UDP profile. There is no workaround in the case of TCP.
TMM no longer restarts when configuration contains TCP virtual server, or a UDP virtual server without datagram-LB mode enabled running DNS cache and suspending iRules.
