F5 upgrade center

Hi MustphaBassim ,

You need to generate a qkview file using following command in your F5 box in BASH mode

qkview -s0 -f "/var/tmp/$(/bin/hostname)_$(date +%Y-%m-%d-%H-%M-%S).tgz"

Once done you need to download this file using WINSCP or any other software and take this QKView file out of your box from /var/tmp/ directory

Now upload it on F5 ihealth site as follows
