If sdmd is restarted from bigstart and the ILX::init handle is assigned to a static variable in RULE_INIT, then RULE_INIT needs to be re-run to release the old handle and acquire a new one, allowing sdmd to shut down the instance pointed to by the old handle.
One extra running process (subsequent restarts will not force a new reference and therefore allow instances to shut down cleanly).
ILX::init is used to generate a handle as a static variable in RULE_INIT.
Modify ilx plugin plugin_name from-workspace workspace_name forces RULE_INIT to re-run. For iRules that are not part of a plugin, simply modify any whitespace in the iRule and save.
None
