Known Issues
Platform or EUD package | ID Number | Description |
---|---|---|
800, 1600, 3600, 6900, 8900 (EUD_M) | Options to run all tests with USB mass storage device | When you use the options A , F , or
N to run all tests, any USB mass storage device
inserted in the system is not displayed at the start of the test. This
is a cosmetic issue and does not affect the performance of the
tests. |
mkdisk | ID 200984 | Some Linux distributions attempt to automatically mount a USB mass
storage device. This might cause the mkdisk utility
to fail to mount the device correctly. If this happens, you can use
mkdisk to create an EUD USB mass storage device
from a BIG-IP system. |
3900, 6900, 8900 (EUD_M) | ID 201215 | During the SMART test these harmless messages might appear:
/dev/sdc was not found and will not be tested. /dev/sdd was
not found and will not be tested . |
Boot message (EUD_B) | ID 201293 | You might see these harmless error message when you boot the EUD:
hub 1-0:1.0: Cannot enable port 3. Maybe the USB cable is
bad? |
WA4500, EM3000, WANJet 300 and 500 (EUD_O) | ID 201389 | On the WA4500, EM3000, WANJet 300 and 500 platforms, the EUD banner
is not stored in the eud.log file. F5 recommends
that you capture the EUD output from your session. |
6900 and 8900 (EUD_M) | ID 201413 | During IM package installation on the 6900 and 8900 platforms you
might see these benign error messages: error: close request on
non-existent handle. warning: boot entry st.eud does not exist.
Handle to cpmirror.dat.share was never released . |
EUD_M 12.7 | ID 201515 | Some terminal emulators, such as TeraTerm, do not display the color
red when an error or failure occurs. To correct this isssue, change the
settings for the terminal emulator to Full Color. |
EUD_V 12.1.0 | ID 201964 | To run the LCD tests on a VIPRION blade, follow these steps:
|
800, 1600, 3600, 3900, 6900, 8900, EM 4000 (EUD_M) | ID 289571 | The voltage in the CPU used in Moonshot platforms might fluctuate
during memory tests. This benign occurrence is due to power saving
features built into the CPU. |
EUD_M 12.7.1 | ID 337565 | During the EUD installation, you might see this benign error:
/usr/bin/upgrade_rpmdisk: line 41: [: too many
arguments . |
EUD_M 12.7.1 | ID 337831 | The Mezzanine Packet Test is not displayed in the
results when you choose the Run all tests options
A , F , or
N . |
EUD 11.2 and later on the 3400 (EUD_B) | ID 347202 | EUD versions 11.2 and later on the 3400 platform. The EUD versions
11.2 and later are not supported on the 3400 platform if the platform is
running BIG-IP 10.0.1 and below with BIOS version 0 Ref F. If the BIOS
is a higher version, you can run the latest EUD. You can find the BIOS
version using the process described in SOL7119: Displaying BIOS version
information for BIG-IP systems. |
USB LCD module (EUD_VF) | ID 359849 | After booting to the EUD, a message might be displayed on the USB LCD
module prompting the user to connect to the cluster primary. This
message can be ignored. When the EUD LCD test starts, the message is
removed. This is a default message that occurs on the LCD module if the
BIG-IP system detects that the blade is not the primary. Therefore if a
blade that was primary is rebooted to the EUD, it loses the primary
status, causing the message to display. The EUD clears the message after
the LCD test starts. |
EUD Hard Drive Firmware | ID 365218 | After you initiate the EUD Hard Drive Firmware Update, the following
question is presented: Are you certain that you want to download
firmware to the disk drives listed above? (Type 'Y' or 'N' and press
ENTER) . This question is automatically answered
Yes . You should ignore this question and allow the
update to proceed. |
4100, 4300 (EUD_B) | ID 367603 | On the 4100 and 4300 platforms, the CPLD test fails when one power
supply is powered off or unplugged from the power source. |
EUD 12.8 (EUD_M) | ID 379370 | The EUD eventually reboots the system if individual tests are run
multiple times without a reboot. Each EUD test calls an individual test
package, which includes initial set up for dedicated testing components.
Test results might be affected by running tests many times in a row
without reboot. |
B4300 Blade (EUD_C) | ID 373478 | On the B4300 blade, the Chassis Sensor Report might display these
benign message: Unknown (device busy) . If you see this
message, F5 recommends that you run the test again. |
B4300 Blade (EUD_C) | ID 374731 | On the B4300 blade, error messages or failed tests might occur when
running any chassis test. In such a case F5 recommends that you remove
all blades except the blade you are using to run EUD, cycle power, and
boot directly to the EUD and run the chassis test again. |
B4300 Blade (EUD_C) | ID 378288 | On the B4300 blade, the SFP/SFP+ test enables the front ports for a
brief moment. This enables the test to read the contents of the
optics. |
EUD_M 12.9 | ID 370118 | On BIG-IP 11000, 11050, or 11050N platforms, periodically, the system
reports the VDD_NB = 1.23V and reports a Fail, even though the measured
voltages have been determined to be within acceptable limits. |
B4300 Blade (EUD_C) | ID 381735 | While booted to EUD, with optics installed, and fiber connections
exist, the 10G and 40G ports' LNK LED becomes erroneously asserted
during the test. |
B2250 Blade (EUD_VF) | ID 437031 | When running the SSL Test on a B2250 blade, you might see these
benign errors:
|
EUD_T | ID 471003 | If direct copper SFP+ cables are used when running the EUD Internal
Packet Path test, the EUD fails. You can work around this problem by
using supported SFP+ modules and cables. |
EUD_CF | ID 584315 | Test 25 - Chassis Data Plane Test might fail if third-party (non-F5
branded) 40GbE or 100GbE transceiver modules are inserted into the ports
of VIPRION B4300 or B4400 Series blades. You might encounter this error:
ERROR: failed to disable the front port xe0 of slot 1 Test
Complete: Chassis Data Plane Test: FAILED You can work
around this problem by using third-party transceiver modules or
inserting supported F5 branded transceiver modules. |
