If the units all have the same base configuration, you could take advantage of the fact that only the shared config is loaded when the hostname from the UCS does not match the hostname of the unit you're installing it on. You could take a good copy of the primary unit's config to a UCS and load that on the secondary unit in another pair. Only the shared config would be loaded (not the base.conf or bigip.license). You could then sync the config from that unit to the peer.

 

 

I'd suggest testing this on a non-production unit to make sure there aren't any issues for your specific scenario. Make sure to back up the current config to a UCS before testing.
