Rename objects

Technical reference for Rename objects.

Reference

In order to rename one object, you have 3 options.

Edit /config/(partition)/bigip.conf

Create new object and switch over during change window (might require dummy IP), then delete old one

Enable the MV operation (this might restart TMM and cause failover):

(tmos)# modify /sys db mcpd.mvenabled value true

Then you can rename the object:

(tmos)# mv ltm pool pool1  poolX
(tmos)# mv ltm virtual vs1  vsX

It's advisable to revert back once finished:

(tmos)# modify /sys db mcpd.mvenabled value false
