CirrusAPM Access Guided Configuration with VIP in different partion
I am trying to use the Guided Configuration to create SAML Service Provider. However ths is can only be run from the Common partition whereas the VIP required has to be on a different parition for security reasons. I have tried to configure this manually but running in to problems and all online guides point to the guided configuration. Is there a way around this partition restriction while using the guided configuration?
I am trying to deploy Big IP APM to perform SAML authentication through Azure. We have the Metadata file but would like to use the Guided configuration to complete the deploy.

HI southern_shredd ,,
I just tried running the Guided configuration in APM Access section after chagning the partion from Common to other partition and geting this error as you told:
I chnage the partition back to Common from the drop down list and can see its the only way:
As per best of my understanding guided policy can be create din the present version only in the /Common partition but i assume they can be applied to a VIP in another partition, as i can undertand you dont want to give the policy restrictions to be visible to other partition admins a s it ill be visible if oyu create the guided policy in common will be accessible to all the admins.

Never tried that myself, so I can only provide the below output 🙂
You can try to copy the autogenerated irules, APM policies, per req policies , LXirules etc. on the VS that is generated by the APM guided configuration.
Outside of that keep in mind if the partition is using a different route domain:
