Symptoms

Local persistence record kept alive after owner persistence record times out (when using pool command in an iRule).

Impact

Discrepancy between persistence records.

Conditions

Universal persistence is configured. A loop of HTTP request is sent to tmm which doesn't own the record. Persistence lookup is performed, but finally the pool command is used for load-balancing pick.

Workaround

Use persist, not pool command, to bind persistence record to a flow.

Fix Information

Fixed keeping alive the owner record.
