NimbostratusProblem adding network interface to VM for Big-IP 11.3
I'm trying to add some interfaces to our Big-IP VM and it isn't going well. When I add the interfaces, we already have 4 defined, we lose access to the configuration GUI and SSH access to the VM. The only way to access the Big-IP is through the console from the Virtual Center GUI. This is a documented problem with running Big-IP under VMware (CR 137616) but the workaround doesn't work for us. It says to run the command "rm /var/db/mcpd*", which we can't from the TMSH shell. Any ideas how to get this thing working would be greatly appreciated.

Can you not log in with an account that has Bash access? Can you do the following: 'run /util bash' 
Dennis_Caffi_11No, we can't run "run /util bash". We get the message "bash access has been disabled".
badmojo42_14014You need to add advanced shell access to your account on the device. This will allow you to log in with Bash access. Then when you want to run TMSH commands you just type TMSH and it will put you in there.
