Opened: Jun 30, 2020

Severity: 3-Major

Symptoms

When a BIG-IP system is configured to work with BIG-IQ but cannot connect due to network problems, avrd restarts itself every 10 minutes. During such restarts, a core is sometimes generated.

Impact

No impact since there is no network connectivity with BIG-IQ, and the data from the BIG-IP system cannot be sent anywhere.

Conditions

BIG-IP system is registered on BIG-IQ, but there is no network connectivity for any number of reasons.

Workaround

Attempts to connect to BIG-IQ can be disabled manually by the following command: tmsh modify analytics global-settings use-offbox disabled

Fix Information

Avrd no longer cores when the connection to the BIG-IQ data collection device is not available.
