I don't know how Solarwinds works but the F5 supports SCP and SFTP so if Solarwinds does, that's the way to go.

SCP command to copy from device to remote storage? Thanks.

thanks, those are good, but I was looking for something (if possible) that could be done automatically without having to manually enter a password etc. thanks.

You can setup authentication based on SSH key vice username/password.

A quick browse of the Thwack forums suggests there have been at least two feature requests related to this;
- FB22457 in 2010
- FB42391 in 2012
SolarWinds clearly don't consider this as particularly important. You could contact them and raise a feature request yourself.
You're best bet right now is to run the SolarWinds SCP/SFTP server and then use a script on the F5 to create the UCS and copy it to wherever you run the scp/sftp server or, use a SolarWinds script/alternative commands.
