Agent Version

1.x

Operating System

Ubuntu 14.04

OpenStack Release

Kilo

Description

The OpenStack agent uses iControl SOAP to manage some configuration objects on a BIG-IP. To guarantee folder consistency when managing folder deletion, the agent moves the mcpd context to '/' root and then into a temp folder. This was overcomes an inconsistency possible if you the folder is not forced.

While the agent is deleting a folder, the SNMP agentX mcpd client attempts to poll stats which are not valid while mcpd is in the root context, it causes a problem for the SNMP agent.

Input error: Create, modify, or delete command invalid for the specified object when the path is root or a valid partition is not specified." Tmsh command within partition "/Common" got NO error when adding SNMP settings.
