    f5bigip.sys.Ifile This resource uploads and manages system iFiles on F5 BIG-IP devices. System iFiles store file content on the BIG-IP that can be referenced by iRules, LTM policies, and other BIG-IP configurations for traffic processing and decision making.

    Example Usage

    System iFile with Sub-path

    partition: "Common",
    subPath: "templates",
    content: `<html>
  <head><title>Service Unavailable</title></head>
  <body>
    <h1>503 - Service Temporarily Unavailable</h1>
    <p>Please try again later.</p>
  </body>
</html>
`,
});

    Notes

    • The content field is marked as sensitive and will not be displayed in Terraform logs or state output.
    • Changes to name will force recreation of the resource since iFile names cannot be changed after creation.
    • The checksum and size attributes are automatically computed by the BIG-IP system.
    • iFile content is uploaded to the BIG-IP system and stored there permanently until the resource is destroyed.
    • Use file() function to load content from local files or templatefile() for dynamic content generation.
    • System iFiles can be referenced by f5bigip.ltm.Ifile resources for use in LTM configurations.

    Path Structure

    The full path of an iFile follows this pattern:

    • Without sub-path: /{partition}/{name}
    • With sub-path: /{partition}/{sub_path}/{name}

    Examples:

    • /Common/config-file
    • /Production/templates/error-page
    • /MyApp/configs/database-settings
    • f5bigip.ltm.Ifile - Creates LTM iFiles that reference system iFiles
    • f5bigip.ltm.IRule - Creates iRules that can access iFile content
    • f5bigip.ltm.Policy - Creates LTM policies that can use iFile content

    Security Considerations

    • iFile content is stored on the BIG-IP system and may contain sensitive information
    • Use appropriate BIG-IP access controls to limit who can view or modify iFiles
    • Consider using Terraform’s sensitive variable handling for confidential content
    • The content field is marked as sensitive in Terraform state to prevent accidental exposure
