Where are ifiles stored on the BIG IP system

I would like to download ifiles that were created on a BIG IP a number of years back and import them into another BIG IP, what location are they stored on the BIG IP system?

 

  • example:

     

    grep -Pzo "(?s)^sys file ifile.?{.?^}" /config/bigip.conf | grep -oP '(?<=cache-path ).*' | xargs ls -l

     

    -rw-r--r--. 1 tomcat tomcat 7729 2016-05-11 10:23 /config/filestore/files_d/Common_d/ifile_d/:Common:all-subnet_65929_1

     

    Those files are in

     

    /config/filestore/files_d/Common_d/ifile_d

      You must be on v12.0.0, for the "P" and "z" flags cannot be used together on v11.6.0.
