You are correct. The clsh command is traditionally used in VIPRION systems for cluster-wide operations. The cpcfg subcommand within clsh is specifically designed to copy configuration files across blades in a VIPRION chassis. However, Velos systems operate differently compared to VIPRION, as they are based on a different architecture and management model.

Here’s the link for the upgrade. I’d love to use the GUI version if possible.

VGF5  What you have provided him is for the chassis and partition upgrade and initial tenant installation. Anzine321 I suggested logging in the CLI of the tenant as for the tenants the architectural difference is not so important between Velos or Virprion as the tenants in Velos select a Primary Blade like I already mentioned and just checking as this is the most certain way to check this as I today simply logged in a tenant and "clsh" is there.

 

For the "Install Configuration option" F5 has documented this well enough Should I use Install Configuration when activating a new Boot Location? as if you are using the GUI, that will copy the config but by default you shouldn't even need this.
