Broda_146178Hi -=Bhattman=-,
Thanks for reply, but I tried that...and every other solutions... :) I got this error when i try chande password for root (in single user mode). When my bigip is starting there is no error. I think there is only one solution: clean install...

it is due to the new password is unable to synchronize to lop (lights-out processor) in single-user mode. the workaround is to change password again in multi-user mode.

In that case a clean install might work. Did you reach out to F5 support itself?

HI,
Sorry for long time with no answer. Clean installation helped.
