Oct 20, 2009Add custom script at startup
It's possible to add a custom script at startup?
It's very easy actually... that's possible by using chkconfig command, but there's another choice? as example using the bigstart command...

Oct 20, 2009In BIG-IP 4.x, the only supported method for running startup scripts was using /config/startup. This is described in SOL3689:
SOL3689: Routes are removed from the /etc/netstart and /config/routes files after upgrading
https://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/solutions/public/3000/600/sol3689.html
I couldn't find a related solution for 9 or 10 though but the file exists and is run at boot.
cat /config/startup
NOTE:
This file will be installed in /config/startup and it will
be called by /etc/rc.local.
- /config/startup is for customer config additions and
will be saved in UCS and configsynced.
- /etc/rc.local should *not* be used by customers and
can/will be changed by F5
