What is the best way to extract or upload pool members ?

Hi there,

 

We are using F5/BIGIP pool & pool member to control our traffic. And now our system is to be upgraded to 11.X version. So the requirement for me is, I need to extract the members per each pool from our existing system, and have the same set of data uploaded into the new system.

 

One way I can think of now, is to use the tmsh command to have such data extracted and uploaded per each pool.

 

But do we have some existing F5 library that can make such job easier ?

 

Thanks a lot !

 

Chun

    The upgrade process will automatically convert your configuration to version 11 (unless you're going from 9.x, in which case you need to upgrade to 10.2.4, and then upgrade again to 11.x)

     

    But if you're looking to clean up the config, then you can extract the data programmatically using iControl (or REST), or even tmsh, combined with various shell commands.
