Couldn't find service: icrd
Hi there,
I'm trying to get the iControl REST service up and running on our F5s.
I was running through the introduction article here: https://devcentral.f5.com/articles/introducing-a-restful-interface-for-icontrol.U3PnFViSzhp
The article says I must input this command:
root@(BIG-IP1)(…)(tmos) modify sys service ircd add
- That's a typo, right? the "ircd" should be "icrd"
- After typing in the command above (both variants for the hell of it) on a non-root account (if that matters), I get: Couldn't find service: icrd
- Checking the list of services via "show sys service" shows that "icrd" isn't listed there
Doing a quick Google search brings me to this thread: https://devcentral.f5.com/questions/rest-api-1141-hf2-will-no-longer-add-icrd
I've also tried the alternative commands but they also lead to the same error: "Couldn't find service: icrd".
This is the first time I'm interacting with our BIG-IP infrastructure (coder ^.^) so I'm probably doing something obviously wrong. The question is: What am I doing wrong?
