ping_access_agent service constantly restarts on BIG-IP VE when physical appliance has over 24 CPU cores.
ping_access_agent may restart continuously.
- BIG-IP is installed as VE - Hardware on which VE is installed has 24 or more CPU cores.
Modify /etc/bigstart/scripts/ping_access_agent file as follows: Existing last line: exec /usr/sbin/${service} -n ${cpu_count} Replacement last line, where A is a number of running TMMs: exec /usr/sbin/${service} -n A For example, when the BIG-IP VE is running 8 TMM processes, use the following example: exec /usr/sbin/${service} -n 8
The BIG-IP system now limits the number of ping_access_agent worker threads to the number of running TMMs. Therefore, the process no longer unexpectedly restarts when running on an appliance with a large number of CPU cores.
