Hello everyone, i'll start by illusterating my environment.
We have in the company 2 F5 devices with version 11.4.1.
I preformed an update on one device (F5-1) to 11.5.4 with no issues or what so ever.
However when upgrading the second device (F5-2) from 11.5.1 >> 11.5.4 , status "devices not synced" appeared on the web management console.
when logging in the tmsh i keep getting error msg of : emerg logger : Re-starting logmysqld
tmsh show sys service ---> shows logmysqld have 200+ restarts. I tried to find a fix to that but didnt succeed.
I was thinking if there is a way to grab the sql DB configs running on device (F5-1) and apply it to device (F5-2).
Im open to any further suggestions,

Hello,
Did you try restarting this process after the upgrade?
Do you have AVR module provisioned along with ASM or APM? If yes, please check the below article.

Hello there,

This is expected, ConfigSync keeps track of changes using a commit ID which is reset when you reload the unit.

In version 11.5 it's under /var/lib/mysql/my.cnf

This software version is very old and out of support, you might try to raise a case to F5 but I don't know how much help support can give on EoL versions.
Have you considered restoring previous schema 11.4.1, deleting the 11.5.4 disk partition and performing a "clean" image install on another disk partition? If you do plan on restoring it, I'd also suggest to perform a couple integrity checks before attempting to install it again, I'd most likely check for disk usage and for errors in /var/log/liveinstall.log as image is being loaded.
