Symptoms
iControl REST: Errors may occur when fetching a large number of objects using the iControl REST API. Symptoms may include a timeout error (typically after 60 seconds) or a Java OOM (out-of-memory) error.
Impact
iControl REST API is non-responsive or unusable.
Conditions
This may happen when the control plane is stressed in terms of CPU and memory usage, for example, when trying to load 20 KB rules.
Workaround
Use pagination for getting a large number of objects, by using ODATA's $skip and $top query parameters. For example, to get the first 100 tm/ltm/pool objects:
HTTP method - GET.
URI - https://locahost/mgmt/tm/ltm/pool?$skip=0&$top=100.
