Copy local user accounts from one Big IP machine to anohter

Just tested on an 11.5 box and the following seems to work fine:

1. From the source box:

   tmsh list auth user > users.exp
   

   This dumps the user list to a file. Edit out the accounts that you don't want to copy over. Example:

   auth user test.admin1 {
       description "test.admin1"
       encrypted-password "$6$...xjUuefL./n20"
       partition-access all
       role admin
       shell bash
   }
   auth user test.admin2 {
       description "test.admin2"
       encrypted-password "$6$...831d."
       partition-access all
       role resource-admin
       shell bash
   }
   

2. Copy this file to the target system and merge it into the config:

   tmsh load sys config merge file users.exp
   

Thanks Kevin.. that helped me too. on 11.4.1 the below worked for me:

tmsh load sys config merge user-only file users.exp

command for ver. 13.0 (/Common)(tmos)load sys config merge from-terminal > press ENTER > Paste configration for auth users > Press Ctr+D to submit > Save sys config

ENTER
