Within this article we will provide you with the steps to upgrade an F5 LTM v10 box to v11.<\/p>\n

New Device Upgrade<\/h2>\n

Below are the steps if you are going to be upgrading your v10 configuration onto a new device. These steps presume that you already have v11 running on your new device.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Verify your v10 configuration is valid by running the command b verify load<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Save the configuration of v10 as a UCS file using the command bigpipe config save 10.x.UCS<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. On your v11 device install the UCS via tmsh load sys ucs 10.x.UCS no-license no-platform-check<\/span>.
    \nNote : This runs the bigpipe daol as part of the upgrade. This makes a best effort of reading and converting the configuration.<\/em><\/li>\n
  4. If this fails then fix issue within the relevant configuration files (\/config\/bigpipe\/bigip*.conf).<\/li>\n
  5. To re-attempt the conversion run the command \/usr\/libexec\/bigpipe daol<\/span>.<\/li>\n
  6. Then run tmsh save sys config partitions all<\/span> and tmsh load sys config partitions all<\/span>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    On-the Box Upgrade<\/h2>\n

    Below are the steps if you are going to be upgrading v10 to v11 on the same device.<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Below are the steps if you are going to be upgrading your v10 configuration onto a new device.<\/li>\n
    2. Verify your v10 configuration is valid by running the command b verify load<\/span><\/li>\n
    3. Disable the configuration roll forward option via bigpipe db LiveInstall.SaveConfig disable<\/span><\/li>\n
    4. Upgrade to v11.<\/li>\n
    5. Once the upgrade is complete install the UCS via tmsh load sys ucs 10.x.UCS<\/span>.
      \nNote : This runs the bigpipe daol as part of the upgrade. This makes a best effort of reading and converting the configuration.<\/li>\n
    6. If this fails then fix issue within the relevant configuration files (\/config\/bigpipe\/bigip*.conf).<\/li>\n
    7. To re-attempt the conversion run the command \/usr\/libexec\/bigpipe daol<\/span>.<\/li>\n
    8. Then run tmsh save sys config partitions all<\/span> and tmsh load sys config partitions all<\/span>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
