Configuration Backup.
Running version 11.3 HF1.
Just preparing the steps require for Disaster Receovery (such as F5 replacement from RMA:)
1) Save the SCF (after any changes) using command "save sys config file bigip4.scf"
Saving running configuration...
/var/local/scf/bigip4.scf
/var/local/scf/bigip4.scf.tar
2) SCP (or FTP) both files to a server
3) To restore, transfer the 2 files above to directoy /var/local/scf onto a new F5 device
and run the command below:
load /sys config file bigip4.scf tar-file bigip4.scf.tar
Is licensing and SSL certificates included in the SCF? If not, can someone advice the steps?
Any oher parts I have missed?
There's no mention about using .UCS in 11.3 doc so assuming that .SCF is the recommended choice?
Currently only running LTM but may add ASM in future.
Thank you.
