Bug ID 499694: LTM v10.2.x to v11.x upgrade misses partition name on node specific monitor

Last Modified: Sep 13, 2023

Affected Product(s):
BIG-IP Install/Upgrade, LTM(all modules)

Known Affected Versions:
11.2.1, 11.4.0, 11.4.1, 11.5.0, 11.5.1, 11.5.2, 11.5.3, 11.5.4, 11.5.5, 11.5.6, 11.5.7, 11.5.8, 11.5.9, 11.5.10, 11.6.0, 11.6.1, 11.6.2, 11.6.3, 11.6.3.1, 11.6.3.2, 11.6.3.3, 11.6.3.4, 11.6.4, 11.6.5, 11.6.5.1, 11.6.5.2, 11.6.5.3

Opened: Jan 06, 2015

Severity: 3-Major

Symptoms

When upgrading from v10.2.x to v11.x, the node monitor name does not acquire full path or partition information. Similarly, creating a node with a monitor via TMSH, the node monitor name does not show partition information; however, configuring a node via GUI does add partition information. If a node with a specific none monitor is later forced down and then re-enabled, the node will remain in a marked down by monitor state.

Impact

For nodes that have a specific monitor of "none", if the node is forced down and then re-enabled via tmsh or the node list in the GUI, the node will be marked down by the monitor. If the node is re-enabled from the node properties page in the GUI, this issue does not occur. For other monitor types or pool and pool member monitors, the issue is cosmetic.

Conditions

Upgrade from v10.2.x to v11.x.

Workaround

Load sys config base, then load sys config. Then in both the GUI and TMSH add partition info to the node monitor.

Fix Information

None
