Hi Beneath,

 

I did the upgradation through Manual Upgrade path and not a clean installation (through DVD)

 

  • 1)Downloaded the 10.2.4 and ISO and md5sums from https://downloads.f5.com
  • 2)Downloaded the 11.2.0
  • 3)Before upgradation, first reactivate the licence as per the procedures
  • 4)made directory (mkdir -p /shared/images) and copied firmware 10.2.4 to this directory
  • 5)Verified MD5 (md5sum BIGIP-10.x.x.iso)
  • 6)issued installation command (image2disk -instslot=HD1.1 -format=volumes BIGIP-10.2.4.577.0.iso)

Same procedure was continued for upgrading 11.2 also.

 

Please revert if any inputs required.
