PeopleSoft F5 Loadbalancer question - session affinity

Hello We are implementing PS FSCM 9.2 and using F5 loadbalancer. We are seeing issues in our PS weblogic logs

 

Suspected session affinity issue because a single-signon POST arrived with an apparently valid PS_TOKEN cookie

 

In our weblogic.xml file the cookie name is identical on all our instances (4). Also, on the F5 site, our admins have configured the cookie method as "HTTP Cookie Insert" per PS and F5's documentation.

 

Have a case open with oracle, however they are saying that its a load balancer issue and will need to be addressed vi F5.

 

Any assistance on this will be greatly appreciated. I am asking this for our F5 admins who say they have it configured per PS/F5 deployment guide.

 

Here is what we see in our logs on the PS weblogic side..

    We are experiencing this same issue. Errors are also identical. Did you find any solution? Thanks.
