Opened: May 06, 2016

Severity: 3-Major

Symptoms

In 12.1.0 and previous versions, SSO SAML and SSO FormBasedV2 object has log-level attribute, which has been replaced by an apm log config object.

Impact

After upgrade, no apm log config object is created for the SSO object.

Conditions

If previous configuration contains SSO SAML objects or SSO FormBasedV2 objects upgraded to versions later than 12.1.0.

Workaround

None.

Fix Information

The upgrade script will now create apm log config object to replace log-level. The publisher's destination for it will be local-syslog. SSO log-level in the new apm log config object will remain the same. The new apm log config's name will be sso-log-setting-<log level>, <log level> can be Debug, Notice, Alert and so on. Warning Message 'apm log-setting is created as the log setting for sso objects. Access : ' will show in /var/log/ltm.

Behavior Change

The Upgrade script for SSO log-level will create apm log config object to replace log-level. The publisher's destination for it will be local-syslog. SSO log-level in the new apm log config object will remain the same. The new apm log config's name will be sso-log-setting-<log level>, <log level> can be Debug, Notice, Alert and so on. Warning Message 'apm log-setting is created as the log setting for sso objects. Access : ' will show in /var/log/ltm. There is no impact to traffic; the upgrade will automatically create the necessary log config object for you.
