Exporting a qkview in order to get parts of the config would mean using a sledgehammer to crack a nut, since qkview will generate a lot more output like logfile extracts and so on. The solution proposed by youssef would be the minimal version, providing only the config of the desired objects. If this is really what you need, go for it!

 

If on the other hand, you need the plain text config (and ONLY the config) of ALL objects (within a partition), you could also export the according bigip.conf file (either /config/bigip.conf for Common partition, or /config/partitions/partitionname/bigip.conf for non-Common partition).

 

If you need all configs from all partitions, generating a SCF file might also be feasible - that one would contain the configs of all partitions in one flat file.

 

HTH
