Thanks for your reply.

So, the persistence method that is being used for this is "Multiple", as in the following:

 

I had never come across this Profile before am still trying to figure out exactly how it works, so any documentation references to it would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks again...

    Hello Newbie.

    Your output shows that you are using "universal" persist profile.

    universal c32e11e0 1.1.11.25:443 1.2.3.4:80 (slot/tmm: 1/0)
universal 1ca941b7 1.1.11.25:443 1.2.3.4:80 (slot/tmm: 1/0)
universal 9439b9eb 1.1.11.25:443 1.2.3.4:80 (slot/tmm: 1/0)

    And it seems that you are facing a bug that creates universal entries despite you were disabling the pool members.

    -------

    Regarding the "multiple" method that you see in the GUI, that because you have several profiles configured in the same VS. Use the next command to check the actual configuration.

    tmsh list ltm virtual <VS_name>

    You have a reference of how to configure "multiple" profiles here.

    Regards,

    Dario.
