BIG-IQ deployment.

Hi Guys and Gals,

I am looking at potentially deploying BIG-IQ to ease management of 24 BIG-IPs in 8 geographic locations so I've built a small lab, a single BIG-IQ 4.3.0 and BIG-IP 11.6.0 Virtualised in VMware ESXi 5.5, to practise the configuration.

I have followed the BIG-IQ Device Management guide to install the REST framework on the BIG-IP however I find the restjavad daemon continually restarts on the BIG-IP. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the RPM packages and rebuilt the lab numerous times but this continues to plague me.

There seems to be little by way of documentation on the KB site or generally searching with Google, from what I understand restjavad required msgbusd to be running with BIG-IQ 4.0.0, does anyone know if this has been deprecated in the latest version or, if it is required, how can I install msgbusd onto the BIG-IP. I have tried manually copying and trying to install msgbusd-extras-11.6.0-0.0.2710.i686.rpm from the BIG-IQ but this returns the package is already installed.

Any help is appreciated.

Kind regards,

Mark
