DESCRIPTION
An administrative partition is a logical container that you create, containing a defined set of BIG-IP system
objects, such as virtual servers, pools, and profiles. When a specific set of objects resides in a partition,
you can then give certain users the authority to view and manage the objects in that partition only, rather
than all objects on the BIG-IP system. This gives a finer degree of administrative control.
You can configure administrative partitions, only if the Administrator user role is assigned to your user
account.
EXAMPLES
create partition partition_A description "Repository for application_A objects"
Creates a partition named partition_A that contains objects related to application_A.
delete partition partition_B
Deletes the partition named partition_B.
OPTIONS
description
Describes the contents of the partition. If you use spaces in the description, you must put quotation
marks around the descriptive text, for example, "This partition contains local traffic management objects
for managing HTTP traffic."
default-route-domain
Specifies the ID of the route domain that is associated with the IP addresses that reside in the
partition. For more information, see help net route-domain.
glob Displays the items that match the glob expression. See help glob for a description of glob expression
syntax.
name Specifies a unique name for the component. This option is required for the commands create and modify.
regex
Displays the items that match the regular expression. The regular expression must be preceded by an at
sign (@[regular expression]) to indicate that the identifier is a regular expression. See help regex for
a description of regular expression syntax.
