LTM VE IMI Shell Access

Hello,

 

I can't access the IMI Shell in the VE the way i normally do with non-VE LTMs. I'd like to configure routing specifically OSPF and BGP on this LTM VE. Here's the error that i get

 

[root@new-host-2:Active] config tmsh root@(new-host-2)(cfg-sync Standalone)(Active)(/Common)(tmos) run /util imish can't run "/usr/sbin/imish", No such file or directory root@(new-host-2)(cfg-sync Standalone)(Active)(/Common)(tmos)

 

I'm very new to both LTM and LTM-VE. Not sure where to go from here?

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

  • There should be no difference in the Advanced Routing Module between VE and non-VE BIG-IP installations. Do you have a license that includes Advanced Routing, or do you have the Advanced Routing Add-on? If so, then you should contact F5 Support to report the error above (though, if this is non-production at this point, you may just try re-installing the VE).

     

  • "/usr/sbin/imish", No such file or directory

    is file existing? i do not have advanced routing module license but the file is there. i am running 11.5.1. as Vernon suggested, you may open a support case.

    [root@ve11a:Active:In Sync] config  ls -l /usr/sbin/imish
    -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1243216 Mar 12 15:42 /usr/sbin/imish
    
  • Turns out the Trial VE does not have the Advanced Routing module. I'v since installed a full version which does have it. Thanks for the response!
