Symptoms

Config reload fails when renewing the license or performing a new install based on the current config. This appears to be the result of a invalid bigip_gtm.conf which is used to load the config rather than the mcpdb.bin.

Impact

BIG-IP DNS config will fail to load when triggered to load from config file

Conditions

If any virtual servers are configured with a dependency list that includes other virtual servers from the same BIG-IP system, BIG-IP DNS creates an invalid bigip_gtm.conf file.

Workaround

None.

Fix Information

Depends-on block is populated correctly with the virtual server info and no error was thrown when reloading BIG-IP DNS config.
