emerg logger: re-starting restjavad

Ran into an odd issue with the restjava daemon.. It continually restarts every second. Looking into the .0.log it outputs the following

Any ideas on what i could do to resolve? Case has been opened with F5 Support, and I have attempted to start/stop daemon.

  • I don't have any helpful information, but am curious to what TMOS version you are running. Did this start after an upgrade, a config change, or seemingly out of nowhere?

     

  • we've been on 12.1.1HF2 for 60 days.. It just started happening yesterday. Doing a capture, I'm not seeing anything REST related that is continuously hitting the C2400. These are vCMP hosts as stated in the logs of which Slot is causing this... It's just weird..

     

  • I ran into the exact same issue in my lab environment. I'm currently running BIG-IQ 5.1 and version 12.1.2 on my BIG-IP running LTM.

     

    My problems started happening after upgrading the REST Framework using the instruction: Installing required BIG-IQ system components that's in the BIG-IQ Device Device Management Guide.

     

    What solved it for me was to actually re-install TMOS on a new partition and boot into that one without copying the configuration.

     

    Before doing that I tried to reset restjavad to its factory settings. This is done differently between each version. Check out this guide: https://support.f5.com/csp/article/K15886

     

    Are you experiencing problems when importing the configuration?

     

    If the F5 supports find the issue please post in this thread.
