CirrusPeriodic (401) Unauthorized responses from the LTM REST API
I have a PowerShell function which calls Invoke-WebRequest to retrieve the members of a pool. Most of the time, it works correctly, but periodically (3 times out of several dozen today), the request returns a (401) Unauthorized error.
The endpoint I'm querying is:
I've only seen it with this one API endpoint.
Any ideas?
Thanks, Joel

What platform and software version are you running? Is it a vCMP guest you are querying? I know of an issue similar to this.
Joel_NewtonHi, Brad. Thanks for responding. We're running BIG-IP 11.6.0 Build 4.0.420 Hotfix HF4. I'm not familiar with vCMPs, but I'm pretty positive we haven't set one up. We're just using standard virtual servers and pools. Thanks, Joel- Brad_Parker_139Well then it wouldn't be the issue I was think about with vCMP hosts/guests.

IheartF5_45022Is it a local auth or remote auth user? If remote (which I'm not even sure is supported yet), have you checked that connectivity to remote auth server working?
- Joel_NewtonIt's local auth.
