Will a reboot of BigIP-LTM clear the persistence table or is the table saved to disk?

Assuming the unit loses power or is rebooted would the existing persistence table be preserved? We could test in the lab, but was wanting to know if this a built-in feature. Currently running 11.6.0-HF5

    The persistence records table will be completely wiped off.

     

    You may want to look into persistence mirroring feature. When enabled, the standby unit is better prepared to take over the duty in case of active unit failure.
