NimbostratusF5 Big IP 2200S, issue with software upgrade v. 11.6
We are trying to update our Big IP 2200s appliances from 11.4 to 11.6. We have successfully copied the iso to the correct directory, but when we run the tmsh command, it doesn't see the iso. Any ideas?
P.S. This is the release note we've been referencing for help: https://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/products/big-ip_ltm/releasenotes/product/relnote-bigip-ve-11-6-2.html
Looks like the issue was due to jumping the gun to 11.6.3, before updating to 11.6.1 first. Version Update Sequence seems to be mandatory on F5 Big IP.

Can you please run the below and show us the output,
tmsh show /sys softwareIf big-ip do not uploaded image do next
1) Check if the image is in /share/images
2) If is it there then highly likely that image is corrupted. Check MD5 sum and compare it with official MD5. Re-upload the image if MD5 is wrong.- gg-it_359602

You can upgrade any 11.x to any 11.x directly https://support.f5.com/csp/article/K13845. It seems there is a bug in 11.4.x which does not allow you to see installed images.
