Is it possible to retrieve a file from an ISO image.

I have like 20 different F5 platform both iCMPs and appliances. They all had a custom script that backed up the configs and sent to archive. I upgraded the OS on all the platforms and newer version. But it never occurred to me that the new version wouldn't have the backup script. (Stupid ME) I really don't want to go through and create 40 different script files again. Is there a way I can pull the ISO off the devices? I am sure I can mount that to a drive and pull the file afterwards.

 

 

Thanks in advance.

    The answer to your question is yes, but that does not solve your problem.

     

    Your custom script will not be in the F5 ISO file (assuming this is the ISO you are talking about).

    Just boot one of the devices back to the previous version, and copy the custom script.
