LTM ConfigSync Failure
Hey Folks
So i'm having an issue with a couple of LTM v9.4.7's that i have in our pre-production environment. the active node has been around for ages and has all of our virtual server information etc.. and has been working fine.
Our passive node was recently upgraded to v10.2 for testing purposes and i've now gone through the process of downgrading that unit again to bring it in line with the Active.
I configured the device to match the active (with obvious exceptions to things like the self-ips) and attempted to sync the 2 devices. What i noticed is that the ConfigSync status shows OK on both devices but the only actual config that populated to the passive node is the SSL Certificate information, nothing else.
I managed to do some google homework and attempted to run the Bigpip Config Sync Pull and got the following results.

Not sure where i should be going from here or how to further test - any guidance would be great.
