about i-rule sorry page configuration

hi.

 

 

i want to use i-rule sorry page in LTM-3600(ver 9.4.5).

 

 

sample config is in the following japanese url.

 

 

http://devcentral.f5.com/Default.aspx?tabid=120&articleType=ArticleView&articleId=249

 

 

 

i could b load by using sample maint.index.html.class written in single strings(=english character.

 

but could not b load customized maint.index.html.class written in Multibyte

 

strings(= japanese character) .

 

 

[root@cld12-L:Active] config b load

 

Reading configuration from /config/bigip_base.conf.

 

Reading configuration from /usr/bin/monitors/base_monitors.conf.

 

Reading configuration from /config/profile_base.conf.

 

Reading configuration from /config/bigip.conf.

 

Loading the configuration ...

 

BIGpipe: class modification error:

 

01070648:3: The requested string class (maint_index_html) member includes a binary character.

 

 

it looks like sorry page written in Multibyte strings(= japanese character) is not

 

supported in bigip.

 

 

does bigip support japanese character sorry page ?

    i was unable to post the external class content. it got blocked by ASM. anyway, it is something like this.

     

     

    [root@ve10:Active] config  cat /var/class/maint.class
"/" := "...HTML code...",
"/index.html" := "...HTML code...",
"/pix/web_graphics/free_website_graphics/background_patterns/00akiw5.gif" := "...base64 encoding...",
