rename the partition name

Not really but you can try the following:

• First take an Archive and save off the F5 device.

• Then you will have to create the new partition then copy the folder

  /config/partitions/

  into your newly created partition folder.

• You will then need to edit each file and replace any reference for the old partition name with the new one. This can be done quickly with

  sed

  on Bash e.g.

  sed -i -e 's/\/oldPartitionName\//\/newPartitionName\//g' bipip.conf

• Then delete the original partition files e.g. `rm -rf /config/partitions/oldPartitionName/'

• In TMSH run a reload

  load sys config partitions all

  (This might take sometime and if you get warnings about conflicts try running it again or loading each partition one by one)

• Finally delete your old partition

  delete auth partition oldPartitionName

WARNING: This will be disruptive to service and no idea what would happen if done on a HA pair, possible you may need to do it manually on each device before you would be able to perform a sync. I would try it on the standby device and see if you can sync to the active device.
