Symptoms

Current Sessions stat does not increment/decrement correctly.

Impact

Difficult to determine an accurate number of Current Sessions. Current Sessions stat appears unexpectedly large, for example, Current Sessions : 18446744073709551615, rather than as expected, Current Sessions : 0.

Conditions

On a virtual server with an HTTP filter, if either side closes the connection after the HTTP request has been forwarded to the server but before the server has sent its response, the pool member's cur_sessions stat is incremented but not decremented.

Workaround

None.

Fix Information

On a virtual server with an HTTP filter, Current Sessions stat now increments/decrements correctly if either side closes the connection after the HTTP request has been forwarded to the server but before the server has sent its response.
