If certain objects are deleted then created within the same transaction, transaction errors might occur.
Unnecessary mcpd validation failure. The system posts an error message similar to the following: 01020066:3: The requested virtual server profile (/Common/vs1 /Common/tcp) already exists in partition Common.
This is exclusive to transactions either via iControl, tmsh cli transaction, or a device group config sync. An object must be deleted and re-created in the same transaction. The object that was deleted must have configured references to other objects. For example, a virtual server can reference a profile or a VLAN. If it does, and there is a virtual server delete-and-create operation in the same transaction, mcpd fails to clean up the join reference on delete and complains when it tries to recreate it.
If a user needs to delete and re-create an object, perform the delete in one transaction and the create in a subsequent transaction.
Attempts to delete and recreate objects within the same transaction now complete successfully.
