Updated iRule not applied to existing connections?

Hi Arie,

 

 

Theoretically, existing connections shouldn't be affected by a change to the iRule--they should continue to use the old version of the iRule. Spark commented on this in a post here:

 

 

iRule not applied immediately

But I and others have seen some odd behavior when updating iRules on actively used virtual servers as described in the post. If you're able to reproduce the issue, you could open a case with F5 Support and ask them to help you investigate the issue.
