CPU high load during specific time periods
In our Big IP ASM, the server CPU is operating at high load during specific time periods. I have checked and confirmed that cron jobs are running at different times. Even though the traffic is not high, this issue still occurs. What could be the cause of this?DevCentral MVP Program

How are memory and disk allocated to different modules on bigip appliance?
hi, when doing "Resource Provisioning", the memory and disk space are auto allocated to LTM and ASM are shown as below. The amount of Memory and disk is minimum requirement, right? When a huge number of virtual server will be created later, will appliance auto allocate more spare memory and disk to the module? And what is he management module responsible for? Is it responsible for packet forwarding? should we set "Provisioning" to "Medium" or "Large" if the throughput is larger than 1Gbps? Can someone please advise? thanks in advance!Any issue if setting up LTM and GTM/DNS on the same F5 Appliance Cluster?
Hi, we have a pair of F5 appliance, and plan to setup HA cluster. After HA configuration and both appliance in sync, LTM works well as active/standby mode as expected GTM delivery listener is active on active F5 appliance as expected, the dns queries are routed to the active appliance GTM wild-ip pool members are shown "down" state on Standby appliance. The status of Data Center/Links are also shown "down" on the Standby appliance. Is it normal? Both F5 appliances are configured under the same GTM sync-group with different external physical links. Can someone please advise? Thanks in advance!
