When the BIG-IQ is under heavy strain, user sessions may be terminated prematurely

 


911445-2 : When the BIG-IQ is under heavy strain, user sessions may be terminated prematurely

Component: REST Framework and TMOS Platform

Symptoms:
When the BIG-IQ is performing resource-intensive operations, API responses may be slowed which can lead to slowness in the UI and in some cases can cause login sessions to end unexpectedly, forcing users to log out.

Conditions:
The BIG-IQ is performing resource-intensive operations such as importing large device configurations.

Impact:
Users are forcibly logged out of the BIG-IQ user interface.

Workaround:
None

Fix:
Issues are now corrected in the APIs which support the user login session so that the UI does a better job maintaining session authorization during periods of high system strain.

957117 : Deploying AS3 Application Services after upgrading BIG-IQ from version 7.1.0.1 to 7.1.0.2

Component: BIG-IQ Application Management

Symptoms:
After upgrading BIG-IQ from version 7.1.0.1 to 7.1.0.2, deploying AS3 Application Services fails with a 404 error.

Conditions:
BIG-IQ returns a 404 error for "/shared/appvcs/info" if you attempt to deploy an AS3 Application Service or run the following command from the BIG-IQ commmand line.

curl -s http://localhost:8105/shared/appsvcs/info

Steps to reproduce:
1. Upgrade BIG-IQ from version 7.1.0.1 to 7.1.0.2.
2. Try to create an AS3 Application Service using a template.
3. Try curl on AS3 info endpoint curl -s http://localhost:8105/shared/appsvcs/info

Impact:
AS3 Application Services cannot be deployed.

Workaround:
In some instances, restarting the restnoded service will fix the problem.
1. ssh into BIG-IQ
2. Run the following command:
bigstart restart restnoded

If the problem persists reinstall AS3 from the RPM
1. ssh into BIG-IQ.
2. Verify the current AS3 RPM by typing the following command: ls /usr/lib/dco/packages/f5-appsvcs
3. Update AS3 using the version that is present. For example:
rpm -Uvh --force /usr/lib/dco/packages/f5-appsvcs/
f5-appsvcs-3.22.1-1.noarch.rpm

This issue may cause the configuration to fail to load or may significantly impact system performance after upgrade
