AltostratusData Group (Class) unavailable during updates, causing errors
I have a Class (Data Group) with just two entries, but every time I update the entries the iRule that depends on the class chokes. The log indicates that the iRule can't find the value assoc...

AltostratusI guess there are essentially two conditions that can cause problems during an update to a class:
1)
The entire class doesn't exist anymore (which happens when the iRule editor is used to update a class).
2)
The class exists but it doesn't yet contain all the values.
Perhaps I should add a control-value to the verification loop and check for its existence also. Based on my observations the list is generally populated in alphabetical order, so an item with a lot of Xs might do the trick. That would still leave the newly edited/added values as they are added last, but at least it'll minimize the problem.
Hopefully F5 will come up with a fix soon...
BTW, any idea whether using the CLI to update a class would make a difference?
