Feature Request - Data Group Import/Export
Hey Joe,
Could you add import/export buttons to the "Data Group Editor" window that would allow me to import (merge or overwrite) and export contents? Thanks!

- AurelCirrusHi, Same question. Seems very not friendly to export Data Group and import them again. (the DataGroup menu GUI is really terrible, but i'm mustn't be the first to say it)
- HamishCirrocumulusAfraid I agree. And if we could get the name consistent (class, data group) it would be nice too...
- uniAltostratusI usually use tmsh to list data groups, edit it in a text editor, the merge it back into the config: "tmsh list ltm data-group internal my-datagroup" and "load sys config merge from-terminal"
- HamishCirrocumulusHi Uni... Yes, a real pain (OK. It's easy once). However, it's also not so easy to hand this kind of stuff off to a level 1 support person either, who may not necessarily be real experienced with either BigIP or even Linux. And what happens if (when) you forget to type 'merge' on the import anyway? H
- uniAltostratusI feared forgetting to type merge too, so I have an alias set up on every bigip I manage : alias merge, command "load /sys config merge from-terminal". Now I only type merge :)
