Hi Kevin,

 

Thanks for your reply. I tried that yesterday as well but was unsuccessful.

 

What I did to make the changes permanent was to copy the bigip_base.conf file, make changes on the copy and then replace the original with the copy. That was the only way I found to work.

 

What was odd is that none of the other files that the same issues.
