tmsh Default Persistence Profile ?

Forgive me if I am missing something subtle that makes this untrue, but adding "persist add { source_addr }" to your create command should do the trick.

when I try using the persist command I get the following response:

 

Syntax Error: "persist" unexpected argument "add" one of the following must be specified:

 

none, replace-all-with

 

 

using v11.3.0 if that matters

oh this seems to have worked:

 

persist replace-all-with { source_addr }

 

 

that doesn't change anything for profiles in general (outside of this specific VIP) does it?

 

 

thanks

I never noticed it before, but the persist attribute for virtual servers doesn't support "add" but instead requires "replace-all-with". This does make sense though as the persist command doesn't support multiple persistence profiles (the backup is specified via "fallback-persistence"). So just use "replace-all-with" rather than "add" and you'll be fine.

 

 

And no, using replace-all-with won't have an outside impact on other profiles for other virtual servers. When you "create" an object, replace-all-with acts the same as "add", and the distinction only comes into play when you're modifying an existing object (at which time "add" appends to the list whereas replace-all-with replaces it).

thanks a lot for your help!
