F5 LTM Point Release Upgrade (12.1.2)
We are looking to upgrade the point release version of our F5 LTM due to vulnerability issue . Currently we are running on 12.1.2.1.0.271 HF1 and plan to move to 12.1.2.2.0.276-HF2 . I am having some confusion on how to start with it . I already downloaded the new image Hotfix-BIGIP-12.1.2.2.0.276-HF2 .
I understand that there's a lot of things we need to consider while doing this . By the way we are running Active-Standby pair of LTM.
Thanks In advance .
Here's the current settings we have . If I understand correctly, we can use HD1.2 or HD1.3 to install the new point release version ?
Volume Product Version Build Active Status
----------------------------------------------------
HD1.1 BIG-IP 12.1.2 1.0.271 yes complete
HD1.2 BIG-IP 11.5.3 2.0.196 no complete
HD1.3 BIG-IP 13.0.0 2.0.1671 no complete

Thank you so much this looks promising from what I can tell . Would you recommend any steps for an Active/Standby pair.
