Bug ID 862369: File size of asm_modules.xml can exceed the file size limit of iHealth

Last Modified: Sep 02, 2026

Affected Product(s):
BIG-IP ASM(all modules)

Known Affected Versions:
17.1.3, 17.1.3.1, 17.1.3.2, 17.1.3.4, 17.1.3.5, 17.5.1, 17.5.1.2, 17.5.1.3, 17.5.1.4, 17.5.1.5, 17.5.1.6, 17.5.1.8, 17.5.1.9, 21.0.0, 21.0.0.1, 21.0.0.2, 21.0.0.3

Opened: Dec 16, 2019

Severity: 3-Major

Symptoms

ASM policies and LTM objects are not uploaded to iHealth.

Impact

-- iHealth does not load part of the qkview. -- Downloading qkview file from iHealth, the asm_modules.xml file has been stripped in the fetched qkview data file. This occurs because of the 500 MB file size limit in iHealth. The file size of asm_module.xml can be huge because of per-policy/account signature tables, DCC.ACCOUNT_NEGSIG_SIGNATURE_PROPERTIES and PLC.PL_POLICY_NEGSIG_SIGNATURES. Files that are not included in the qkview data because they are too larger are reported in the 'skipped_files' report in the root directory of the qkview data.

Conditions

-- ASM is provisioned -- A qkview is generated from a unit with a large number of policies -- The qkview is uploaded to iHealth
