NimbostratusCopying a iApp/Virtual Server
Hey all, I was looking to take an existing Virtual Server for my citrix implementation, copy it, and create the exact same virtual server, just for a different destination address. I want to deliver it both internall and externally to my network. What is the best way to do this? should I copy the virtual server and create a new one from that copy with a differing dst address? Or is there a way to configure the existing virtual server with an additional IP address for my internal users?
Thanks!
There is not a copy virtual server option available for virtual server objects, but here are a couple ideas for how you could replicate your configuration using a new address:
-
(recommended) If you are using the Citrix iApp to create your BIG-IP configuration, run another instance of the iApp using a new IP address for question "What IP address will clients use to access the Web Interface or StoreFront servers, or the F5 Webtop?".
-
Open two management windows to your BIG-IP and manually copy all the existing settings onto the new virtual server.
-
Use TMSH list and create commands.

Greg_130338Great I'll give that a shot. That would be a good feature though. Seems logical especially if you want to offer the same resource both internally and externally.
