Sure. It's changed in 9.4.2 so there are two methods.

From SOL4802:

 

https://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/solutions/public/4000/800/sol4802.html

 

 

For BIG-IP versions 9.4.2 and later:

 

 

bigpipe system hostname

 

 

Replace with the fully qualified hostname for the BIG-IP system.

 

 

For example:

 

 

bigpipe system hostname askbig9n1.askf5.com

 

 

For BIG-IP versions 9.0 through 9.4.1:

 

 

bigpipe db HostName

 

 

Replace with the fully qualified hostname for the BIG-IP system.

 

 

For example:

 

 

bigpipe db HostName askbig9n1.askf5.com
