Extracting Parameters Identified during Learning

Hi DJ-Boston,

 

 

There are existing requests to get a human readable flat file output of the policy for auditing and reporting. I don't have the CR number, but if you would like to support the request, you could open a case with F5 Support and ask them to attach your case to the change request.

 

 

You can get some detail on the parameters in a rough format by running asmqkview from the command line. The output is a gzip compressed tar archive written to /var/tmp/. If you extract it and go to the tmp\asm_snapshot_temp_dir.XXXX directory, you will find the asm_mysql.dump file. This is the mysqldump of the ASM database. You could either parse this file to get the parameters, or you could load it in another MySQL database off of the BIG-IP. The relevant tables are:

 

 

PL_GLOBAL_PARAMETERS

 

PL_OBJECT_PARAMS

 

PL_FLOW_PARAMS

 

PL_PARAM_ATTRIBUTES

 

 

To get the exact details for each parameter's configuration you'd need to join quite a few more tables. But hopefully this gives you a start.
