iRule Editor and 9.4 Admin partitions.

No immediate plans, but I'll add it to the feature list.

Hi Joe.

 

 

We are setting up our entire environment based on partitions, so we really need this functionality ;-)

I just posted a new version with Partition support. Look for the Partition menu in the File menu.

 

 

Let me know if you find any issues with it.

It looks good.

 

 

One thing though. A user with role Manager for a partition is not able to save. I think this is because you are saving the system configuration every time you click save. I think it is enough just to do "DoSaveNode(tn)" if you do changes to other partitions than "Common" (but I'm not sure :-))

Hi Joe,

 

 

We are still seeing this issue with 0.9.2.0 (screenshot attached). The iRule does actually save however.. any plans to fix this bug?

 

 

Thanks!

I guess it needs to be decided whether this is a bug or not. If you are a Manager you don't have access to save the configuration. Early on it was requested that save to iRules are persisted to disk and that can only be done with a save_configuration() call. I guess I could add another menu option to save the configuration to disk and make it configurable on whether an auto save occurs. I guess this would make sense and still allow those who want auto-save and are running with a role that allows it the ability to do so.

 

 

Does that behavior sound good to you?

I believe that would work.. although, the iRules are being saved even with Manager access.

Yes, they are getting saved to the runtime (in memory) configuration. This will not persist across reboots unless an explicit config save is issues to flush the configuration to disk.

Ahhh got ya. In this case, an option to save to disk would definitely be helpful.
