Managing Local users on this device is not allowed. Please use the APM active device

I get this message in this menu: Access   ››   Authentication : Local User DB : Instances  The "Create new instance" button is grey. I am on an active standalone device though... APM version 15.1.6...

Do you by chance have a device-group defined for this standalone device?

tmsh list cm device-group

If so, delete this and test again.

    No device group, no.

     

    cm device-group device_trust_group {
    auto-sync enabled
    devices {
        bigip1 { }
    }
    network-failover disabled
}
cm device-group gtm {
    devices {
        bigip1 { }
    }
    network-failover disabled
}

        No it has always been standalone. I managed to create a database with a TMSH command, but not a user 😕
