After updating a key/certificate in place and synchronizing the configuration, TMM may log critical-level messages about loading a key, certificate, or chain.
In 11.5.0 and later, this message indicates an issue that impacts traffic to affected virtual servers: 01260000:2: Profile /Common/otters: could not load key/certificate. In versions earlier than 11.5.0, these messages can safely be ignored: -- 01260000:2: Profile /Common/otters-ssl: could not load key file. -- 01260000:2: Profile /Common/otters-ssl: could load neither certificate nor chain file
A certificate and/or key referenced by an SSL profile are deleted and then recreated, and then that is synchronized (via a full sync, not an incremental sync) to peer devices.
None
TMM still log critical-level messages, but the system function properly and traffic is not affected.
