Hello,

You can use these steps for the task at hand

 Write all Virtual Server configuration to a temp file
(bash)  tmsh list ltm virtual >> /var/tmp/vs.txt

 Open the output file for modification in Vi
(bash)  vi /var/tmp/vs.txt

 Modify the VS configuration file in Vi (Search & Replace)
(vi)  :%s/destination 99.99.99/destination 88.88.88
(vi)  :wq

Sample above is assuming that all your virtual servers are currently in 99.99.99.*, and the new desired address is 88.88.88.* where the last octet value is retained

 Append new configuration to the existing
(bash)  tmsh load sys config merge file /var/tmp/vs.txt
