cannot ping virtual server

We have two virtual servers defined on the big-ip. one for production and the other is for test. Both of them were working fine until yesterday. Something must have gone wrong, I can not even ping the test virtual server. Production seems to be fine. How to resolve the issue. I appreciate any help. thanks in advance!
  • there are too many options to offer any concrete help. is the test virtual server showing as 'up' in the gui? are you trying to ping it from a computer on the same subnet? have you tried disabling/re-enabling the virtual server?
  • Look at the arp tables on some of the adjacent systems. Chances are good there's a corrupt entry somewhere. You can issue a 'b load' from the command line, which will issue another GARP on the network and will hopefully update the tables.
