Move Objects from one partition to common

Good day,

 

A previous engineer that worked on our F5's have created partitions accoridng to the request of the client. However the client frequently wants to add nodes to different pools that reside on different partitions.

 

We would like to move all objects in the partitions to the common partition.

 

Is there a simple way to perform this task?

 

As part of a test on a vm I created a test partition and assigned a node to it. I then navigated to the partition and renamed to /Common. However when I try to load the config I receive an error that the node already exists

 

TMSH-VERSION: 12.1.2

ltm node /Common/1.1.1.1 { address 1.1.1.1 } ltm node /Common/2.2.2.2 { address 2.2.2.2 }

 

Rename

 

TMSH-VERSION: 12.1.2

ltm node /testing/1.1.1.1 { address 1.1.1.1 } ltm node /testing/2.2.2.2 { address 2.2.2.2 }

 

/config/partitions/testing/bigip.conf 0107176c:3: Invalid Node, the IP address 1.1.1.1 already exists. Unexpected Error: Loading configuration process failed. root@(local)(cfg-sync Standalone)(Active)(/Common)(tmos)

 

Thanks
