Hi,
You can use crontab to plan a tmsh command.
The tmsh command is :
tmsh run cm config-sync to-group Your_Device_Group - Mazen2006_14317

I don't need your member's name but your Device-group's name.
Why do you want to do the synchro every day ? Keep in mind that the synchronisation is just on configuration and not on logs.
Also, for a synchro you have to choose a way (to-group or from-group). So it's not recommended to automate this.

my device group name is: Device-Group It's required by our manager because guys in run dept. forget to do sychro after changes on active LTM... So we need to apply a sychro to-group every midnight from the active member - Mazen2006_14317

I don't know if we can check if the device is the "Active" device before applying the config-sync to-group command...?

With bash commands you can do everything.
Unfortunately, I can't do it right now I'm too busy for that...Remember that you can modify configuration from active or passive member...
