Symptoms

Database cleaning failure may allow MySQL space to fill the disk entirely, which prevents any modification of ASM policy configuration. In /var/log/ts/asm_config_server.log you might see these errors repeatedly: Jun 9 09:38:45 10gal-f5-5000-2 crit g_server_rpc_handler.pl[16654]: 01310027:2: ASM subsystem error (asm_config_server.pl,F5::ASMConfig::Handler::handle_error): Code: 999, Error message = DBD::mysql::db do failed: The table 'NEGSIG_SIGNATURES' is full
