NimbostratusUpdate admin partition
Trying to update my script from v10 to v11 and have trouble with updating admin partition:
In v10, i used the following instructions to select the admin partition I wanted to create some object where the variable $part content the name of my partition:
tmsh::modify cli admin-partitions all-partitions $part
In v11, i try to do it with the following instructions, but I have an error "admin-partitions may only be specified in a config file"
tmsh::modify cli admin-partitions { update-partition $part }
I checked the chapter cli/admin-partitions of the documentation and posts on devcentral but didn't find any solution. Does anybody have an idea?
Thanks!

- In V11 partitions are present, but not quite as visible as in prior versions.
Partitions and top level folders mirror each other.
When a partition is created a top level folder is created
tmsh create auth partition abc
Will create a partition and will also create the folder /abc.
tmsh list sys folder /abc
When a top level folder is created a corresponding partition will also be created.
tmsh create sys folder /efg
Will create the folder and also create a partition
tmsh list auth partition /efg
The cd command is used to move to a different partition.
tmsh cd /efg (you are now in the /efg folder and the efg partition)
tmsh create sys folder /efg/xzy
tmsh cd /efg/xyz (you are in the /efg/xyz folder and still in the efg partition) 
Alscion_68122Hi Mark,
Thanks for your Reply, i tried to create new folders/partition and I can navigate among them and create objects as I want.
But when I upgrade a box from v10 to v11, partitions (created on v10, before the upgrade) are correctly available on v11 but folders are not created, so I can't navigate and update or create new objects on a partition created in v10 on a box updated in v11.
I continue to investigate but if you have a tip, i'm interrested.
Best Regards.- It may be worth noting here that when you are using a TMSH script to create or modify in v11 you can reference them thusly:
tmsh::command module partition/object { parameters }
for example:
tmsh::create ltm virtual /Common/VS_abc {destination ... } Can I execute a comand/action on all partitions at the same time? Is there an "ALL" option? I need to remove an irules across 600 partitions and can't find a good way to do it. I'm thinking in remove the actions of the irule to simulate a near zero activity but I would like a more elegant way to do it. (meaning remove the irule from each VS). Thanks
You could use a TMSH script to retrieve a list of partitions, set irulename set tmsh::get_config partitions foreach $partitions { cd $partition tmsh::delete $irulename }

- Thanks Brent, I've been working over the following Jason's script to make it "partitions aware" using the commands you recommended. https://devcentral.f5.com/s/articles/rapid-irule-removal-via-tmsh-script Unfortunately there's somthing still missing in the code, but Jason is helping me to troubleshoot the issue. Hope to have it ready later today.
Phil_Wedel_7401Hate to revive an old thread... but did you get the script working across partitions? Trying to deploy an iRule for the new Bash shell exploit.
