BIG-IP REST endpoints used in F5 BIG-IP became deprecated

Hello guys,

 

With the BIG-IP version 14.0 bellow REST end-points used in F5 BIG-IP became deprecated:

 

- /mgmt/sys/disk-info

- /mgmt/sys/cpu-info-stat

- /mgmt/sys/tmm-stat

- /mgmt/sys/host-info-stat

 

 

We are wondering if there is possibility to hold this end-points in the product, or they need to be removed?

When is planned to remove end-points?

What would be the replacement for this end-points?

Thank you.

  • I can't really see what was available in those, but can you see if it's similar to these?

     

    /mgmt/tm/sys/disk/logical-disk

    /mgmt/tm/sys/cpu

     

    Not sure about the other two. Conctact to support to get a more official answer

  • Can you provide some information about where you obtained the

    lifecycle state deprecate

    for those endpoints?

     

    Thanks

      I just started querying a BIG-IP starting at /mgmt/tm/sys and then seeing what was there. I have not found any official explanation of the replacement for the deprecated sections.

        Hello James,

         

        thank you for you help and reply. You have right, I also did not find any official explanation for replacement of mentioned end-points but I will try to use the end-points which   has listed.

        Thanks,

  • So these items were marked as deprecated in BigIP 14.1.2.3.

     

    /mgmt/sys/cpu-info-stat and /mgmt/sys/host-info/stat return the same information, and should be accessed via the documented endpoint

    /mgmt/tm/sys/cpu/stats

     

    /mgmt/sys/disk-info should be replaced with

    /mgmt/tm/sys/disk/directory/stats

     

    /mgmt/sys/tmm-stat should be replaced with

    /mgmt/tm/sys/tmm-info/stats
