Freezed F5 GUI

Hi,

on my F5 Guest with APM-LTM modules, when i try to open an APM object, all Guest GUI freeze for 30-40 seconds. After that all seems fine.

If i check the Statistics via gui it spike to 90% of CPU, with the ssh top it spike around 70%.

 

Any suggestion?

 

PS: The Policy configured are too long (around 150 object), but they are quite easy (LDAP query/auth, ResAssign).

    Hello Alb3.

     

    F5 GUI normally freezes when CPU usage is too high. This is common when you have to deal with a very heavy configuration with lot of objects.

     

    One possible idea is to increase management plane resources.

    Let me know if this helps.
