Leonardo,

 

Thanks for the reply - I tested your proposal, but with no success :(

 

I checked my settings again, and now I changed the port-lockdown settings to allow all.

 

First I tested my mirror connections, setting the option in a VS. I tested my transaction, transaction hanging - no session established between client and pool.

 

Reset VS option connection mirroting to off and tested my persistence mirroring. Standby side has no knowledge of the session.

 

Anyone has an idea?

    I think next step is open a case with F5 support. They can review your configuration for problems, and also send you some tcpdump/netstat commands to verify if the connect is established. I had a look in askf5 for bugs in your version, but did not find any related with mirroring.

    Thanks for your effort.

     

    I will open a case with support.
