How do I to rename a Virtual Server/Pool name on a F5 LTM ?
- Mar 04, 2019
HERE is a link explaining that in order to rename VIPS through CLI, you must enable the MV (move) command. I just tested this on Ver 13, and it works the same with Pools. That link references THIS one, which is an official F5 doc and has some good info too.
Do that by running the command in TMSH
modify /sys db mcpd.mvenabled value trueYou can then "rename" your VIP by MOVING it to another name
mv ltm virtualOr rename your pool in the same manner
mv ltm poolThen disable the MV command so no mistakes are made later by running
modify /sys db mcpd.mvenabled value falseHope that helps! If it does, please up-vote and select this answer, it would be greatly appreciated!

NOTE There is a chance that TMM will restart after that change is made, so be aware of that.
You can rename virtual server and pool by editing bigip.conf file but you may encounter issues while loading bigip.conf file.
Best way is create one new virtual server with dummy IP and then you just swich over the IP's in off business hours.
