Can't disable debug logging.

I have a couple of VIPs using an iRule for persistence. If I set debug to "0" (disabled) it just keeps on logging, even if I comment out the log lines. It just doesn't want to obey, what gives? Anyon...

Hello, I think it's a normal behavior. The iRule update will work just to new connections.

Note: When you make a change to an iRule with persistance, if there is already a connection in the connection table, the change does not take effect until the connection has expired. The same is true when you enable logging for the iRule and then change the iRule (or alter the logging message itself).

 

Regards.
