In a chassis environment stpd attempts to connect to slots that are empty. These connection attempts are unsuccessful and will result in repeated stpd errors in the ltm log: err stpd[7707]: 01290003:3: Attempt to send 15 bytes to inettcp://127.3.0.4:4401 timed out after 8 seconds
Repeated stpd errors in the ltm log. This is a cosmetic error that can be ignored safely.
This issue exists when there is one or more empty slots in a chassis.
None.
The stpd process now checks to ensure that a slot is populated before attempting to connect to that slot.
