Symptoms

When issuing the tmsh command 'load sys config', policies may appear to be ineffective.

Impact

Policy does not work as expected.

Conditions

Policy actions that might disappear refer to another object, for example 'forward select pool pool-object'.

Workaround

Remove and reapply the affected policies using tmsh: modify ltm virtual vs-name policies none. modify ltm virtual vs-name policies add { affected-policy }

Fix Information

'tmsh load sys config' now loads policy actions correctly, so some actions are no longer ineffective.
