Upgrade vCMP host via Big-IQ?
Hi,
We have a viprion chassis, and we manage all our loadbalancers via Big-IQ. However when we try to do a upgrade (minor upgrade 12.1.2 -> 12.1.3.2) via the Big-IQ, we cannot get the config to be synced to the new HD where we're installing the new firmware on.
I've read that you need to manually copy the config from the old HD to the new. But as we're using Big-IQ, shouldn't this be as an option to actually do this so we dont need to do any manual work on each loadbalancer? The whole idea behind Big-IQ i thought was to make things easier :)
We've found what was the cause of our issue.
We have enabled a few services on each virtual F5, like AFM, APM, LTM etc. However these worked fine on our old image. But when our F5 didn't have enough cores or memory assigned to handle the newer version. We did assign 4 cores instead along with more memory. After this was done the installations via Big-IQ worked as intended and everything came up the way it should :)
