Severity: 3-Major
When an HTTP compression profile is enabled on BIG-IP platforms with Intel QAT compression accelerators, gzip errors are produced.
Clients cannot decompress the compressed file because there is an invalid gzip footer.
This occurs when the following conditions are both met: -- When compression.qat.dispatchsize is set to any of the values in the list: {65535, 32768, 16384, 8192}. -- The size of the file being compressed is a multiple of the compression.qat.dispatchsize value. Example file sizes: 65355*32768 , 8192*32768.
Disable hardware compression and use software compression.
