Nimbostratushow to write a data to external calss
hi
i have a question.I created a class used a external file and
the application need output the record to this class.
how to do like this? my rules didn't realize the data output t...
The iRules language does not currently have any way of modifying the filesystem on the BIG-IP. This means that any class, in an external file or in the main config, will not be permanently modified when it is modified in a rule. The changes will remain in memory until the system's configuration is reloaded, at which time the information that was in the configuration files will be re-loaded into memory.
The only way to have the information in memory become permanent is to save it to disk by way of the bigpipe save command, which can be executed via iControl if you require programatic access to this command.
HTH,
