Error Message when installing 13.0HF3
This isn't a question, just a solution/FYI because I couldn't find this issue when searching DevCentral for (Failure testing installer update status in /shared/images/) on VCMP. I ran into an issue when attempting to upgrade from 13.0HF2 to 13.0HF3 on my vCMP guest. The 13.0 ISO installed correctly to an empty boot location. However, I got an error message when I attempted to install Hotfix3 on that same partition. There's a bug ID for this (665725) and no fix yet, but the workaround is to restart the lind process on the guest. [notmylogin@notmyguestname-f5-prod:/S1-green-P:ForcedOffline:Disconnected] ~ clsh bigstart restart lind This allowed me to continue the software installation without issue. Hope that helps.
Editing 9.x scf
Hi, I am trying to import scf from 9.4.8 396.1 (from BIG-IP 1600) into VE 10.2.4 577.0. It always fails with message: Saving configuration to /var/local/scf/.backup-0.scf. Reading configuration from /config/low_profile_base.conf. Reading configuration from /defaults/config_base.conf. Reading configuration from /usr/share/monitors/base_monitors.conf. Reading configuration from /config/profile_base.conf. Reading configuration from /config/daemon.conf. Reading configuration from /shared/configi/lb1_mod_10_x_01.scf. Renaming /var/local/scf/.backup-0.scf to /var/local/scf/backup.scf. Loading the configuration ... BIGpipe unknown operation error: 01071009:3: No provisioned objects found. When searching for both 01071009:3: or No provisioned objects found. I only found SOL12204 but seems to be irrelevant as there is already entry: provision ltm { level nominal } in bigip_sys.conf So I started to wonder if it's at all supported to remove any entries from scf file? I am not saying about entries other objects depend on but some looking like standalone: shell write partition Common ntp { servers 1.1.1.1 timezone "Europe/Warsaw" } Maybe this is the reason? If it's possible to remove parts of scf then how to debug what is reason for this error? Piotr
Error when downloading from downloads.f5.com
I was given a task to update our F5 Viprion's software version this weekend. However, upon checking for the latest software version on F5's downloads website, I came across an error which is: Export Compliance Check - Failure All downloadable files are presented with this error when I tried to download.BIG - IP LTM License - upgrade options
Hello, I have some questions regarding to the BIG-IP LTM license and upgrade possibilities. 1) How can I determine what kind of license I have? The License tab says only LTM 25M, Perpetual; I would like to know the license code (whether it is F5-BIG-LTM-VE-25MV12 or F5-BIG-LTM-VE-25MV13), is it possible to check? 2) Based on the license type, how can I know what kind of upgrade path are possible for me? If I have (for example) F5-BIG-LTM-VE-25MV12, does it allow me to upgrade up to 12.x releases? Thank you in advance.3600 upgrades
Our F5s are 3600s and are now out of software development. We are currently running version 11.6.1 and have come across the ROBOT vulnerability in this version so want to upgrade to 11.6.2 HF1. I tried to upgrade to version 11.6.2 HF1 but encountered the error - Configuration compatibility test failed. Is this because version 11.6.2 HF1 does not work on a 3600? If that is the case is there any way I can get around this and install the version?
