- Feb 17, 2015Hi Jerome, how about the state of your GTM server? In WebUI > Global Traffic > Servers you should also have the GTM configured (as BIG-IP device with "bigip" healthmonidor assigned). Does it show up there and is it "up"? Is your GTM added to a "sync" group? Do you see continuous messages in /var/log/gtm (tail -f /var/log/gtm) regarding failing connections? Daemons inside GTM and between GTM controllers (in same sync group) communicate via F5 iQuery protocol via TCP/4353. iQuery is using the device certificates for authentication. Did you already run the "bigip_add" and "gtm_script" on the device? I guess the internal device communication is not set up or broken and that´s why the external server´s availability isn´t reported properly to the gtmd. Steps to troubleshoot: 1. create new device certificate (using the unit´s hostname as CN and 3650 days) 2. have a internal self IP in allow service "default" 3. optional: run "bigip_add " (should not be necessary) During all steps run "tail -f /var/log/gtm" in a separate console. You should see GTM joining sync-group and turning "green". You should see other servers (i.e. your generic host) turning "green" Please note, that the PortLockDown settings are opening services on your BIG-IP. Make sure to block unauthorized traffic to the self IP, please. Thanks, Stephan
