  • Just in case, anyone requires a solution for this. The command below worked perfectly for me. Use it in bash.

     

    cat /var/log/audit | grep -i Status=Command

  • Here is a quick-n-dirty way

     

    Given f51.contoso.com and f52.contoso.com, and want to see changes are pending:

     

    1. ssh to f51
    2. cd /var/tmp
    3. scp admin@f52.contoso.com:/config/bigip.conf /var/tmp/bigip-f52.conf
    4. diff /config/bigip.conf /var/tmp/bigip-f52.conf

      ​once you scp into the F52 do you run the diff /config/bigip.conf /var/tmp/bigip-f52.conf ?

      I got up to this point and it didn't work for me.

      Well, just before the section there's a section that's more legible:

      Hi Ray,

       

      Apart from the timestamp, other details also do not appear user-friendly!!!

      Did you have changes pending? Worked for me, 12.1.12.

      Though I wonder what the timestamps represent. They don't look like a familiar timestamp format.

        I realise the question was asked two years ago, but it's a unix timestamp, shifted left 32 bits with 32 bits of subsecond precision.

         

        You can discard the right-hand 32 bits and treat the rest as a normal UTC unix epoch timestamp.

         

        $ TZ=UTC date -d @$((6510792451376654679>>32))

  • command (configuring through tmsh) takes effect immediately but it is not written to configuration file until you save it (tmsh save sys config).

     

    anyway, if you are talking about configuration synchronization, you can see detail about incremental configuration synchronization using tmsh show cm device-group incremental-config-sync-cache.
