NimbostratusHotFix installation question
It's been a couple years since I've had to do any kind of code upgrade on an f5 ltm pair. So here's my current situation: 2 F5 LTM 3900s set up in Act/Pass pair, currently running LTM v11.3.0 build 3093 installed on volume 1.2. Both devices need to be upgraded to 11.4.0-20405-HF2. The hotfix image has been imported, but not installed, on both devices.
Basically, I'm looking for a walkthru/refresher on the upgrade process.
Thanks in advance.
shaggyYour best bet is following instructions in release notes - http://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/products/big-ip_ltm/releasenotes/product/relnote-ltm-11-4-0.htmlrn_install_overview. You will need to upload the full 11.4.0 release to the LTMs, too (HF is only a roll-up of hotfixes for the main release).
A few other tips:
- upload a current qkview to ihealth and review any notices that could impact your upgrade (for example, httpclass profiles go away in v11.4+)
- open a proactive support case before your upgrade (~1 week in advance) in the event you have upgrade issues
