v14 Network Map shows 'Forced Offline'

Hi,

 

new pop-up Network Map in version 14 shows BIG-IP state as 'Forced Offline', although the real state is Active or Standby.

 

Does anybody have more insight into this?

 

Thanks,

Marko

    Hi Marko,

     

    I've been looking into this a bit yesterday and today and I believe that this may be a recently discovered bug. I don't see any public facing documentation for it yet since it's so new but it looks like it is being tracked internally under bug ID787885. It also appears to be a cosmetic bug so far.

     

    With that said, if you are able to, I would recommend opening a ticket with F5 Support to explain what you are seeing and reference that bug ID. Doing that will allow them to confirm whether or not that bug matches. I can't guarantee that they will have a workaround or a fix for you but at the very least it will help to have your case added to the bug and to verify which software versions are potentially affected before closing the ticket. That would help lead to fixes in the near future for the affected software versions. It is of course ultimately up to you if you want to do that or not.
