Ambiguous error message in /var/log/ltm

Does anyone get this message or know what the unexpected argument is?

It doesn't cause any problems, just would like to rid myself of it.

  • Did you by any change make a change to global settings? Or have a TMSH script that calls global-settings?

    What is the output of this command?

    tmsh list sys global-settings

    To your first two questions, no I don't. Here is the output:

    sys global-settings {
        gui-setup disabled
        hostname f5-hostname.company.com
    }
    
  • If you do the following, what do you see?

    tmsh load sys config?
    

    Are you using any iApps?

  • Hi,

     

    Any further information to the above? I'm getting the same message in my logs.

     

    Thanks

     

  • Yes we do have the Exchange iApp.
