upgrade

Need advice on upgrading 11.2.1(1299)HF12 to a supported version. F5 will soon stop supporting 11.2.1 and we need to upgrade. I wanted to ask the community for some tips on upgrading... we are thinking about 11.6.3 to keep backwards compatibility. Is there a way to test irules and configuration compatibility before performing the upgrade?

 

Happy Holidays!

    1st check if you able to go with the target version on your platform https://support.f5.com/csp/article/K9476

     

    2d you can use "Upgrade advisor" tool in ihealth system to see if you may get any issue after or before upgrade. This tool does not cover all issue though

     

    3d it is not possible to do entire compatibility check. You need to do test upgrade to see how things are going
