v10.2 tmsh equiv for b verify load

Been searching devcentral and cannot find what I would think should be;

 

tmsh load sys config verify -- for version 10.2

 

bigpipe equiv is "b verify load"

 

I have found where it reportedly works for v11

    1. "tmsh load sys config" attempts to load the config. If there are syntax errors in the config files, you might end up with a non-working config on the unit.
    2. "tmsh load sys config verify" validates the config without actually loading it. If there are any errors, you can go and manually modify the files before loading the config. Repeat this step after each modification you make (for example if you have a bigip.conf file which has 1000 lines, and you have 2 errors on lines 500 and 700, the first one that stops the config will be reported. If you go and fix line 500, run the config verify once again, and don't assume that was the only error in the config).
  • how to load config from a /path/to/file/location ?
