K.... the instruction in that uri work... with one caveat - I installed 11.2.0 to a volume. I was left with a situation where there was no default boot image:
Current boot image:
HD1.3 - title BIG-IP 10.2.1 Build 297.0
Default boot image:
No locations are marked as 'active' volumes.
Available boot image(s):
HD1.1 - title BIG-IP 10.2.1 Build 511.0
HD1.2 - title BIG-IP 11.2.0 Build 2446.0
HD1.3 - title BIG-IP 10.2.1 Build 297.0
I then ran through the procedure outlined in sol13926 and received the following error:
/var/tmp/addmos /shared/images/BIGIP-11.2.
warning: copy failed (/var/tmp/0E0SqoUtNQ/mfg.pattern.sh): No such file or directory
info: No MOS update necessary; system has 2.7.4 - 42.0, media has 2.7.4 - 42.0
So, the MOS had already been updated with the install of 11.2.0. A grub_default -d confirms this:
title TMOS maintenance
root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz.mos root=/dev/ram0 rw console=ttyS0 ramdisk_size=135136.5 skip_media
initrd /initrd.img.mos
TIC_STATIC_KEY: st.mos
TIC_STATIC_VERSION: 2.7.4-42.0
I told the device to load 10.2.1 and format to partitions like so:
image2disk --format=partitions BIGIP-10.2.1.297.0.iso
And, hey presto, it worked!
