Hi Spark1985,

you can't add additional configuration object fields. But you could organize the description field value as a list-item...

root@(f501)(cfg-sync Standalone)(Active)(/Common)(tmos) modify ltm virtual Test description "Some blah blah"
root@(f501)(cfg-sync Standalone)(Active)(/Common)(tmos) list ltm virtual Test description 
ltm virtual Test {
    description "Some blah blah"
}
root@(f501)(cfg-sync Standalone)(Active)(/Common)(tmos) modify ltm virtual Test description "Some blah blah | TicketID: 1337"
root@(f501)(cfg-sync Standalone)(Active)(/Common)(tmos) list ltm virtual Test description
ltm virtual Test {
    description "Some blah blah | TicketID: 1337"
}
root@(f501)(cfg-sync Standalone)(Active)(/Common)(tmos)

Cheers, Kai
