Symptoms
Under extremely high API load with FAST applications the BIG-IP Next instance may become unresponsive.
Impact
The BIG-IP Next instance will become unresponsive.
Conditions
When sending 1000s of applications requests or deleting 1000s of applications without sufficient rate limiting.
Workaround
For large scale FAST API deployments use the following guidelines.
-- Create an application and then deploy it being sure to check for 200 OK responses.
-- Before creating the next application, poll the link in the response waiting for the deployment task status change from "pending". When that application has been successfully deployed, the cycle may be restarted.
