self aware irules from IIS settings

Internal datagroups are contained within the bigip.conf config file, so they are automatically synced when the boxes are synced. External classes are external files that are defined in the bigip.conf config file. A file called "cs.dat" defines which folders in the filesystem get synchronized between peers, and the folder where you traditional put external datagroup files, /var/class, is on that list.

 

 

By the way, the tmsh command I gave you was for internal datagroups. Manipulating external datagroups is a little different.
