Restarting services
Greetings, I am unfamiliar with BIG-IP so I will post my question. I did look at the forums but was unable to find a solution. We made a change to our "sorrypage.htm.class" file in the directory /var/class but the changes are not reflecting. Can I restart a service to get the updated information to appear? If not what needs to be completed in order for my changes to reflect?

tmsh load sys config
Hi lLucero,
In order for external DGL's to reflect, you would need to import the file first. I believe which you have already done here.
Next step is to reference the file in the data-group,
For which you have to perform the below,
Capture the
by running the below command, in my case the external datagroup referenced in Irule isexternal-file-name
sample_external_dgl
(tmos) list ltm data-group external sample_external_dgl ltm data-group external sample_external_dgl { external-file-name sample_external_dgl_file type string }
Now that we know the external-file-name, do a list to show you the current file its mapped to,
tmsh list sys file data-group sample_external_dgl_file
You would see something like below,
mode 33188 revision 5 size 43 source-path file:/var/class/sorrypage-old.htm.class
Finally run your modify command,
tmsh modify /sys file data-group sample_external_dgl_file separator ":=" source-path file:/var/class/sorrypage.htm.class type string
Output will be something like below,
`Copying file "file:/var/class/sorrypage.htm.class" ... % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed 100 42 100 42 0 0 820k 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 820k Hope it helps. Sorry for the delay... 🙂
