Where to place bash scripts on the appliance in order to survive platform upgrades?
Hi All,
I have a bash script that is executed by an iCall script. I know iCall will survive an upgrade of the BIG-IP platform however I suspect that my bash script will need to be placed in to very specific location on the F5 appliance such as /tmp? I want to confirm where my bash script should live on the appliance so that when we upgrade the appliance, this script will copy across and continue to run without any manual intervention being required.
Thanks
Chris
/var/tmp is actually a link to /shared/tmp. So no need to agaonize over them. If it is a file of a temporary nature, use /var/tmp; otherwise you can create a directory structure /shared/my_icall/bash_scritps/ and put your bash scripts there, as SP's suggested above.
