    Running the following fixed my issue:

     

    configure

     

    ip dns

     

    name-server 208.67.222.222 208.67.220.220

     

    I basically pointed to a different public DNS server as for some reason those from google did not work.

     

    Thanks.

Hi Vlad, it looks like there is a name server misconfigured (or not configured at all). This is critical for the bundle upload to happen, and it not per the "Bundle upload has not occurred." message. In configure mode, ensure you have a DNS server configured. An example of how to do this with Google's Public DNS servers is below: 

ip dns
    name-server 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4
    admin-status online

Try that and let us know how it goes. Also, please ensure you are setting your F5 account's user-id and password for the 

configure licensing regkey phone-home userid "" secret "" activation auto
command. I see that you redacted this with in other parts of your post, but want to ensure you are doing this for phone-home configuration as well.

Just to be clear you are suggesting that I run the following exactly: ip dns name-server 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4 admin-status online and then rerun: configure phone-home userid "..." secret "..." activation auto please advise? Vlad
