Auto updates GeoIP database on Big IP.
Problem this snippet solves: Securely, auto updates multiple Big IP's, geoip database. Tested on Version 12.1.2, but should work for others. How to use this snippet: Must have PHP installed (tested on 7.0, 5.6 should work too) Install (on Ubuntu Server 12.04-16.04) sudo LC_ALL=C.UTF-8 add-apt-repository -y ppa:ondrej/php sudo apt-get -y install php7.0 php7.0-common php7.0-cli php7.0-curl php7.0-mcrypt php-ssh2 php-zip Then just issue on the CLI: php geoip_updater.php <downloads.f5.com https geoip file url - on location page> <optional, md5 file url> Modify script to enter your servers ip, hostnames, and Auth settings. Testing updating 8 BigIP's, in under 5 minutes. Due to limitations in how the file is offered on downloads.f5.com, you have to get the filename before running the script.

Hello, Is there a way to force all vcmps to standby? I have 2 VIPRION and I want to re-license one of them previous to upgrade the BIG-IP version running on it. So I need to move all guests from one Host to other VIPRION to prevent loss of service. Running the following command you can see the state; active or standby, for all vcmps: # tmsh show vcmp | sed '/Vcmp::Guest Prompt/,/^$/!d' I´m trying to failover from HOSTA to HOSTB all guest with status: /Sn-green-P:Active. Is this possible?
Update 11.5.1. HF4 to HF6 fails with configuration problem - BUG
Hi, There seems to be a bug in the new Hotfix! After the update from HF4 to HF6 and a reboot, I get the know error message "The configuration has not yet loaded. If this message persists, it may indicate a configuration problem." The ASM module will be stopped. If I run "tmsh load sys conf", I get Syntax Error:(/config/bigip.conf at line: 112) "predefined-report-name" may not be specified with "multi-leveled-report.limit" If I look into the conf on the activ device, I find "predefined-report-name" in my configured analytics reports (Security/Application/Charts Scheduler). Strange: If I delete the scheduler on the active device, it will still exist in the config on the active device, but it will be removeed from the config of the standby device. If I create a new one and delete it again, everything is removed from the config. An update without a any chart scheduler and a clean bigip.conf results in another error. Now, I get 010717e1:3: Client SSL profile cannot contain more than one set of same certificate/key type. Unexpected Error: Loading configuration process failed. This is described here: https://devcentral.f5.com/questions/010717e13-client-ssl-profile-cannot-contain-more-than-one-set-of-same-certificate-key-type This is a bad hotfix. Be careful.
configuration error after upgrading to 13.1.1
Hi, just updated our F5 from 12.1.2 to 13.1.1. Unfortunately I have an issue with one VS in the internal partition, it is disabled and it's not possible to enable it. The error that occurs is following: Configuration error: Virtual server (/Internal/Exchange2010-Internal.app/Exchange2010-Internal_combined_https) with access profile attached has traffic group (/Common/Internal-TG) that is different from existing one (/Common/External-TG) We have 2 partitions (Internal / External) and also 2 traffic-groups (Internal-TG / External-TG), where all the VS are assigned properly. With 12.0 / 12.1 everything worked fine, also after updates. Now, after upgrading from 12.1.2 to 13.1.1 this error occurred, but only in the internal partition. The External one has also an OWA-VS created with the same iApp - everything ok there. I checked all the configuration, unfortunately I can't find anything that could be wrong by myself. The configuration was done with an iApp and later some changes were made, but nothing special and nothing that could describe such an issue. Any ideas?

active/stanby cluster disconnected after Update
I have two new F5 BIG IPs with 12.1.2 HF2 installed, these two devices are running active/standby (same device trust configuration like the old ones with 11.6.2 HF1). While Upgrading from 12.1.2 to 12.1.3.1 (or directly to 13.0.0 or 13.1.0) my Cluster ist disconnected, because of different Software Version. Does any one have the same issue? Any suggestions?f5 update check manually working but not automatic
