Event: Configuration reload request received, reloading configuration
I did not manually relaod the config, but this message is in my system log.
Tried looking in F5 database, what exactly do u suggest I do, just wait for the service to restart or reload the LTM ????

Was this at 4am? It's likely syslog-ng was re-initialized as part of cronjobs that run each morning:
Oct 2 04:02:03 host syslog-ng[1682]: Configuration reload request received, reloading configuration;
It's nothing to worry about.
Aaron- rajeev_81179thanks a lot aaron...
You are a star.... - Maybe logrotate?
Simon_Sparks_12This occurred at 4:02am for me but also during the day at 11:46am which caused an interruption in the availability of the REST API in v11.4.

vaibhav_MD_2489HI Dear,

The BIG-IP system runs a daily log rotation script at 4:02 A.M. that reloads the syslog-ng process. As a result, the system logs a message similar to the following example to the /var/log/messages file at that time:
syslog-ng[]: Configuration reload request received, reloading configuration;
In the log message example, note the following:
RahulKIn my case yes. Change pending is there
I have the same issue. I can see the log on var/ log/messages but we never start the device and device uptime is since long time

Do devices get into "changes pending" state after this operation?
i do not think so.
e.g.

Thanks nitass, yes it doesn't correlate with the times changes performed. I tested here as well. Thanks for your answer.
nice commands indeed.

We just had our Skype virtual servers go down in F5 and Skype clients disconnected. At this time I saw this message as well. We also had a changes pending state with sync partner as well afterwards. Are we sure it does not cause an interruption in connectivity?
