sideband connect command crashes but no logs
Hi, I have created a simple iRule for sideband connections. Here is how the connection is being initialized:
if {[catch {connect -timeout 1000 -idle 30 -status conn_status 10.10.10.10:8080} conn] == 0 && $conn ne ""}{ log local0. "Connect returns: $conn and conn status: $conn_status" } else { log local0. "Connection could not be established to sideband_virtual_server" }
But, it doesn't look to work - the connection is not being established. Only the log that i see in /var/log/ltm is "Connection could not be established to sideband_virtual_server". I don't even see the try of establishing of TCP connection from the F5 box to the sideband server by using tcpdump. As i'm new to F5, could you please help me to understand what did I do wrong and is there a way to see the exceptions being throwing by the LTM while processing the iRule?
Thanks
