Hi SynACk,
involving support as recommended by boneyard is first choice.
As a workaround I would recommend the step by step approach if this needs to fix asap.
a) license the new unit:
get_dossier -b base-registration-key
(get new license from license.f5.com)
cat > /config/bigip.license
(Paste new license; finish paste with )
reloadlic
b) merge extracted basic configuration data from /config/bigip_base.conf without floating self IPs!:
cat > /var/tmp/base_config
(paste relevant data from base config file; finish paste with )
tmsh load sys config merge file /var/tmp/base_config
tmsh save sys config
c) put new unit in forced offline mode:
tmsh run sys failover offline
d) rebuild the device certificate, device trust and the device cluster, run config sync
e) release new device from offline mode:
tmsh run sys failover online
Thanks, Stephan
