you dont need to configure gtm ha separately.
by configuring bigip ha pair (sync failover device group), the gtm modules in both nodes should act as single gtm node.

gtm-layer active standby or active-active is between gtms in different data center/site/drc.

LTM + GTM on same box

i followed the below steps:
1. Setup HA between LTM and working fine as active/standby
2.License both modules for GTM.

3.on the active F5 I Tab added both F5 each one with its Owen self-IP in GTM as a server with VIP discovery enabled.

4.on the Standby F5 I added both F5 each one with its Owen self-IP in GTM Tab as a server with VIP discovery enabled.

5.i have allow all on the self-IP of both F5.
6. I run gtm_add script on the standby F5. 
But, when i go to GTM Tab i found that standby F5 VIPs showing down ?
