tabulated details of LTM configurations
Is there any way to quickly produce a CSV file which tabulates all of the virtual servers' configurations / settings from a the contents of UCS / qkview files? e.g. Tabulate / list (in a CSV file) all of the virtual servers from a bigip.conf file, with columns indicating the following virtual servers' configurations / settings: - virtual server name - description - virtual server status (e.g. enabled / disabled) - virtual server availability (e.g. available / offline) - destination address & port - IP protocol (e.g. TCP) - subnet mask - pool name - profiles - source address - source address translation type - translate address status - translate port status
UCS restore via REST with additional options
For our DR site I am restoring periodically some VCMP in the remote site using our local UCS backups. As the hardware platform differs, it seems that I need to put additional options like no-platform-check and platform-migrate like in this CLI command: tmsh load sys ucs /var/local/ucs/<ucs-files> no-platform-check platform-migrate The restore via CLI works using the additional options, without them it fails. Using REST /mgmt/tm/sys/ucs is it possible to use options like no-platform-check platform-migrate ? Apparently it is not possibile, or at least not well documented. I need these options otherwise the restore fails. Thank you for your suggestions!
Restore from UCS archive to existing BIG-IP system in a redundant pair.
Hi, We have a pair of BIG-IP devices for redundancy. I've backed up our BIG-IP configuration to a UCS archive, and now plan to do some work on the system, one BIG-IP device at a time. The backup is in case this does not go to plan. I see K8086 for "Replacing a BIG-IP system in a redundant pair without interrupting service", but I am not replacing either device, I'm keeping both and possibly using the UCS archive to restore the device to a good configuration of itself if there are problems. Is there any knowledgebase for this, or is K8086 the closest thing, and if so, which steps are not required? Version is BIG-IP 11.5.4. Thanks
