ramcache entries - source?

 

 

Can anyone tell me what "Source" means here in the output of profile http all ramcache entry show?

 

 

 

As that's the only difference between the two entries as I can tell, that's presumably why there are two objects and not just one in the cache.

Additionally, with iRule events like CACHE::disable, what part is actually being disabled? Just the caching of the object, or the serving of it to other requests? There seems to be no distinction between the two parts of the process from what I can see.

  • I'm not sure what the source attribute is showing. You could check with F5 Support on this.

     

     

    CACHE::disable in a request side event prevents a request from being answered from cache. When called in a response event, I believe it prevents the response from being cached.
