Cannot remove manually configured L7 policy ASM

Dear All ,

 

I am trying to deactivate one of the active ASM policy which is not associated to Any VS , But getting below error

 

"Cannot remove manually configured L7 policy" . Has anyone faced this before ? Any suggestions would be appreciated

 

Thanks in advance !!!

  • Normally this means that the policy in question is still associated with an object in the configuration. I would start by double checking this. If it is not in use by any object, and is not deleting, I would open a case with support.

     

    You can reach support by calling 1-888-882-7525 or internationally 800 11 ASK 4 F5. Make sure you have your BigIP's serial number available as you will need it to open the case.

     

  • try to check the following: Local Traffic ›› Policies ›› Policy List Page

     

    then

     

    find your policy, and verify if there is any exception added to this policy, if yes just modify and remove the exceptions and save the draft again.

     

    at the end your should be able to do any further action on this policy deactivate, delete ...etc.
