The system encounters issues when you save a self IP in one SCF, then delete the self IP and recreate it using the same name but specifying a different IP address.
The system posts an error similar to the following: 01070712:3: Cannot create IP address 10.10.10.5/27 in vlan 'internal' in rd0 - netlink error: 17 (File exists) - net/validation/routing.cpp, line 701
This occurs when you load the SCF and try the delete/recreate a second time.
To work around this, you can run the command bigstart restart mcpd. As an alternative, you can issue the following commands prior to loading the scf file: 'tmsh delete net self <self_name>' 'ip addr delete <IpAddress>/<netmask> dev <vlan_name>.
Fixed a problem where the user loads an SCF that has a different self IP than the current configuration the IP does not change.
