Unable to export APM access policy.

 

Hi Everyone,

 

 

 

I am unable to export the APM Access Policy from BIG-IP Web GUI. I have already downloaded the backup file (.ucs) from archive list, however I would like to export the APM Access Policy from Access Policy --> Access Profiles --> Access Profile List and then clicking on the Export as shown in the attached screenshot. Its showing Loading.. Receiving configuration data from your device for 3 to 4 minutes and then shows a message, restarting the configuration. Kindly assist me in this regard.

 

 

 

Regards,

 

 

 

Mohammed

 

  • Hi Mohammed,

     

     

    Can you open a case with F5 Support on this? You can help by running qkview from System | Support and uploading it to https://iHealth.f5.com.

  • Hello, you can try to check all images uploaded, and verify that the name does not contain spaces.

     

    Then try to export it, because this is a possible cause.

     

    Greetings
  • Hello Did you finally solve this issue? Something quite similar is happening to us Regards

     

  • Hello, we are seeing the same issue while trying to export one APM access profile. Did you find any solution to this?

    Are you using iApp created policies? You might hit issues if you export from policy created from iApp.

     

  • No we are not using any iApp for this and there is no whitespace in the profile naming. 2 other profiles on the same unit is exporting just fine. The Version in question is v11.2

     

  • We found the issue while looking at the audit log. There was a Reference to a custom front image. The image in question had a filename containing a whitespace and therefore it seemed as it was unable to export it.

     

    The error was: "The requested unknown (/Common/) was not found. cmd_data=list apm policy image-file Common/"
