Clearing connections on a backup LTM

I think Chris' original question of why you're using connection mirroring on HTTP requests is a good one. HTTP clients are fairly resilient to connection failures. Browsers typically open short lived TCP connections. Even if the connection goes down, the browser will either automatically retry or prompt the user to retry manually. It's generally not worth the overhead to mirror connections for an HTTP virtual server.

 

 

That said, I'm not sure why deleting the connection on the standby unit wouldn't clear the connection counts on the node. Can you try a 'b load' after the 'b conn ... delete'?
