DESCRIPTION
You can use the volume component to view information about configured volumes, delete unwanted volumes, and
reboot the device to a specific volume.
Volumes are created using the install command. See help sys software image and the option create-volume.
Deleting or rebooting into a volume on a VIPRION system affects the entire chassis; therefore, you do not need
to specify the slot number.
EXAMPLES
list volume */1
Displays the details of all the volumes located on the first slot in a chassis.
delete volume HD1.5
Deletes the volume named HD1.5.
reboot volume HD1.1
Boots into volume HD1.1 if that volume is not already active. If the volume has an image actively being
installed on it, the reboot occurs when the installation is complete.
OPTIONS
active
Specifies if this volume is being run.
active-requested
Specifies if this volume should be active once its status is complete. The system associates this setting
with either the active volume or the volume that is going to become active when its status is complete.
If active-requested is set on a volume that is not presently active, the system reboots into the volume
when the volume status is complete. As an example, install sys software image BIGIP-10.1.0.3341.0.iso
volume HD1.2 reboot will cause active-requested to be set on volume HD1.2, and the system will reboot
into volume HD1.2 when the installation is complete. This value is read-only.
basebuild
Displays the build number of either the hotfix presently applied to the system or the original build.
build
Displays the original build number (before any hotfixes).
edition
Displays a textual description of the image. You can use this option to specify the hotfix you want to
install.
media
Displays a description of the physical media on which the volume exists. The options are:
media
The type of physical device on which the volume exists, for example, hard drive (hd) or compact
flash (cf).
size The space on the slot reserved for the volume.
default-boot-location
Specifies the volume into which the system boots if the slot resets.
name Specifies the name of the volume you are configuring. Volume names are in the format HDX.Y, CFX.Y, or
MDX.Y, where X is the hard drive index (HDX), compact flash index (CFX), or RAID index (MDX) (on systems
that support RAID), and Y is the volume number on that drive.
product
Displays the F5 Networks product that is installed on the volume.
reboot
Reboots the system into the specified volume.
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.
status
Displays the installation status of the volume. The options are complete or installing.
version
Displays the version number of the software installed on the volume.
