Cirrusbulk edit data-group (bigip.conf )
I've seen some answers to this but I'm needing to make sure it's the right answer.
We have a data-group key/value pair for redirects. We put in the source, destination, and other details, like start ...
There is no need to do this. There are two data-group sources: internal (meaning, part of the config) and external (meaning loaded from a separate file when the config is reloaded). They are equivalent in performance; they differ only in how they are loaded (well, and the differ in layout, as well). This article explains how to create and modify an external data-group:

CirrusI am needing to edit the internal data-group that already exists. Either by editing the bigip.conf and saving changes or by editing a file to merge with the internal data-group. I don't know how to do either. Is that another option to accomplish what I'm asking that's safer? I saw you can verify the syntax before merging and I've been told editing the .conf is not preferred. I just want a way to mass edit lots of data instead of hand typing line by line everything from the GUI.
So I'm looking for a tmsh command that merges an existing file into my existing internal data-group and loads the updated config or a list of commands I can use to edit the .conf and update in-line with my additions.
