## Symptoms

- * "`idapi_load_data_impl: session id <Session ID> not found in client_db, although ip <Session IP> was assigned to it`" appears repeatedly in the `/var/log/messages` file on ClusterXL Members / VSX Cluster Members.

* Output of the "`fw -i <CoreXL Firewall Instance> tab -t pep_client_db -t pep_src_mapping_db -s`" command on the ClusterXL Members / VSX Cluster Members shows that these kernel tables "`pep_client_db`" and "`pep_src_mapping_db`" contain data in different CoreXL Firewall Instances.

* Issue occurs on a ClusterXL / VSX Cluster that enforces an Access Control policy with Access Roles in rules.

## Cause

One of these possible scenarios:

### Scenario 1:

The current number of entries in the PEP kernel tables "`pep_client_db`" and "`pep_src_mapping_db`" is not the same in the same CoreXL Firewall instance.

Example of this issue:

`[Expert@CxlMember1:0]# fw tab -t pep_client_db -t pep_src_mapping_db -s`

```
HOST                  NAME                                ID #VALS #PEAK #SLINKS
localhost             pep_client_db                      279    50   200       0
localhost             pep_src_mapping_db                 282   100   200       0
[Expert@CxlMember1:0]#
```

### Scenario 2:

The current number of entries in the PEP kernel tables "`pep_client_db`" and "`pep_src_mapping_db`" is not the same in at least one of the CoreXL Firewall instances.

Example of this issue:

`[Expert@CxlMember1:0]# fw ctl multik stat | awk '{print $1}' | grep -v "-" | grep -v ID | awk '{print "fw -i " $0 " tab -t pep_client_db -t pep_src_mapping_db -s"}'`

```
HOST                  NAME                                ID #VALS #PEAK #SLINKS
localhost             pep_client_db                      279   500   603       0
localhost             pep_src_mapping_db                 282   500   603       0
HOST                  NAME                                ID #VALS #PEAK #SLINKS
localhost             pep_client_db                      279   600   705      0
localhost             pep_src_mapping_db                 282   600   705      0
HOST                  NAME                                ID #VALS #PEAK #SLINKS
localhost             pep_client_db                      279   600   705       0
localhost             pep_src_mapping_db                 282   600   705       0
[Expert@CxlMember1:0]#
