When a virtual server with a SIP profile has mirroring enabled, connections on the standby unit will be removed shortly after being created. If tm.rstcause.log is enabled the reset cause message appears similar to the following: -- err tmm1[18383]: 01230140:3: RST sent from 10.2.207.208:5080 to 10.2.207.201:31597, [0x2c1c820:1673] MBLB internal error (Routing problem). -- err tmm1[18383]: 01230140:3: RST sent from 10.2.207.209:51051 to 10.2.207.202:5080, [0x2c1c820:931] MBLB internal error.
