Update NodeJS on BIGIP

Hello, I have tried to update nodejs on my BIGIP VE but it fails, I'm trying to install it using n eventually, I receive the following trace:

 


npm ERR! Linux 3.10.0-514.26.2.el7.ve.x86_64
npm ERR! argv "/usr/bin/node" "/usr/bin/.npm__" "install" "-g" "n"
npm ERR! node v6.9.1

after even trying to install that localy and running n it fails saying 'read-only'
