I do believe the F5 recommendation is not to do an active/active pair between geographically separate data centers. Are you wanting to do this for ease of management or maximum up-time in the event of a failure? F5 does have a tool and I'm not very familiar with it though, but it is called Enterprise manager and I believe that would fit the bill in helping upkeep two separate GTM systems.
I've operated other active/active products before between data centers and depending on the stability of the connection it can be a nightmare.
If someone on here is running an BIG-IP active/active pair I'd like hear their experiences with it.
