run a list of tmsh commands (copy - paste) failed

if you have bash access on the F5 (from tmsh, run "run /util bash"), you can create and execute a bash script out of the tmsh commands:

1. preface each command with "tmsh" so each command can be run from bash
2. add !/bin/bash as the first line of the text file
3. upload the file containing the commands to /shared/(filename).sh using SCP
4. from bash on the f5, make the script executable

   chmod 755 /shared/(filename).sh

5. execute the script

   bash /shared/(filename).sh

6. once you validate that the resulting configuration is what you desired/expected, save the config

   tmsh save /sys config partitions all

i often use this instead of copying/pasting commands as error output is the only thing output to the screen and is not lost among the list of commands being run
