bigip.conf not update

Hi, Recently we've discovered that when we create a pool, node or vs with tmsh or webUI, the file bigip.conf doesn't have the modification. Our version: BIG-IP 12.1.2 Build 2.0.276 Hotfix HF2 We save daily our system. My questions are: - Is that a bug who will be fixed? - when is edited the file bigip.conf ? - There a memory cache before the edition of bigip.conf?

 

Regards

    Config modifications done via webUI should update the bigip.conf immediately. Config modifications done via tmsh need to be saved to bigip.conf with 

    "tmsh save sys config"
    .

    If you do not see your changes in webUI updating your bigip.conf, this is either a bug, or maybe you are looking into the wrong directory because you are using administrative partitions.

    If you are using partitions, please note that each partition has its own bigip.conf, located under /config/partitions//bigip.conf. When modifying settings that would alter objects within a non-Common partition, those changes will not alter the Common partition's bigip.conf file directly under /config/bigip.conf.
