Difference between partition and folder in F5?
Hi Anyone can explain the difference/relation between partition and folder in F5? I read some documents, but i still feel confused about this. Thank you
A partition maps to a top level folder. The Common partition maps to /Common. You can have child folders, it's like a file system. However there are no child partions, so if you are in folder /MyFolder/MySubFolder you are in partition /MyFolder.

Thank you for your reply. I think you are right. The folder is located at one F5, but the same partition can be located at several F5, am I right?
