NimbostratusUnknown (Enabled) - Node address service checking is enabled, but result is not available yet
Hi team good day
could someone help me, I'm trying to configure the device (F5), but when I add the nodes I get the following message: "Unknown (Enabled) - Node address service checking is enabled, but result is not available yet"
The thing is that when I access via cli (ssh) and execute a telnet to the port it is successful, but the service is in a blue state.
I send screenshots of the error:
Could you help me please, it's the first time I've configured it, thank you:
successful connection telnet to port 7500 via cli (ssh):
echo "" | nc -v -w 1 10.154.104.6 7500
Ncat: Version 6.40 ( http://nmap.org/ncat )
Ncat: Connected to 10.154.104.6:7500.

Your F5 BIG-IP is in a forced offline state. So no health checks 😉
In BIG-IP 11.5.3, 11.6.0 HF6, 12.0.0 and later, the bigd process does not send monitor traffic to pool members and nodes when the system is offline and does not update the state of the monitored objects. This results in the following behavior:
- When the BIG-IP system starts with Force Offline enabled, monitored nodes and pool members are initially marked Unchecked, then remain Unchecked until Force Offline is released.

Hi whisperer how r u?
we have a solution active-standby for 2 device
we need relicenced both devices.
into the process, turn off the device standby of cluster.
After we turn on active the standby device and relicence the active device.
after relicenced the active device.In this process, we see down about 250 virtual server down with the message into the pool with :" Node address service checking is enabled, but result is not available yet"
is this normal?
the MAC masquerade solution this?
I was confused with the explanation, I leave a photo so that it is better understood
thx!
