Recently, one of our soon to be deployed serverfarm stopped responding to requests, because it has reached the max-conn limit.
The strange thing is, the serverfarm is usually under very little load.
Here are some dumps of the CLI
CSM01#sh mod csm 7 vservers name ipc2.web.http config
IPC2.WEB.HTTP, type = SLB, state = OPERATIONAL, v_index = 64
virtual = 20.254.127.24/32:81 bidir, TCP, service = NONE, advertise = FALSE
idle = 3600, replicate csrp = connection, vlan = 801, pending = 30, layer 4
max parse len = 2000, persist rebalance = TRUE
ssl sticky offset = 0, length = 32
conns = 1, total conns = 76532
maxconn drops = 0, total drops = 242

As you can see, the counter has maxed out, even thoguh the connections table is blank.
Any help is much appreciated.

what CSM version ?
Looks like the counter wrapped around. That is, you had 0 connections and for some reason the counter was decremented by one, which gave the huge number of connections.
Definitely a bug, but will need to know the config, the version, and if possible information about the tests that have been done prio to be in this state.
