Restore to 9.3.1

I was wondering if anyone had a document or steps/process involved in restoring to 9.3.1 (partitions) from 10.0.1 (volumes). Thanks,

    Hi Craig,

     

     

    One process that should work is to burn or mount the 9.3.1 ISO and boot a computer (or VM image) with it to act as a PXE server. Connect the PXE server and LTM management IP via a switch or using a cross over cable. Then set the unit to netboot using the SCCP (ssh sccp; run hostconsh; select option 4 - netboot, 7 - reset host, Y - confirm, 1 - connect to host).

     

     

    You can find more info on AskF5 by searching for LTM related articles and the term "downgrade". Here's one solution:
