The html files that you refer to may or may not be relevant. The template definition is stored in /config/bigip_script.conf, and the template 'import' button performs the equivalent of a 'tmsh load sys config file merge' with whatever is in the uploaded text file. When you create a template from a non-Common partition, 'update-partition Common' is prepended ahead of 'update-partition Partition1'. It may be superfluous, but it is harmless. Setting aside that technicality, in my tests, config shows in both UI and TMSH that the template is correctly in the administrative partition, even after export/change name/import. Do you see a different behavior on your BIG-IP? What is your end goal?
