Just upgraded from f2b v0.9.6 to v0.10.5 on Ubuntu 14.04 using this thread, and it is banning normally according to my old jails that i copied from my previous version.

But when i restart the service, it persist only the IPs that was banned with the configured enabled jails. All manually banned IPs like fail2ban-client set sshd banip 1.2.3.4 are gone when i do restart. That wasn't the normal behavior on old versions i used.

Any help please?

Update: Just tested (as fresh install and upgrade) f2b on 2 Ubuntu 16.04 servers and it did same behavior. Seems not related to Ubuntu version

This is a common bug in f2b v0.10.5 on different OSs not Ubuntu only, fixed in v0.10.6.

You can find this discussion here, they are talking about same issue, and got it fixed by changing to v0.10.6 or even v0.11.x.
