Documentation: Provisioning F5 without LTM #29

Open vvt137 opened 3 years ago

vvt137 commented 3 years ago

It is not documented (e.g. in the onboard.js part of the usage page) how to use the --modules option to deploy VEs that either are not licensed for LTM (e.g. Advanced WAF licenses) or should be provisioned without VE (e.g. as per K40257355).

My tests show that ltm:nominal is used implicitly, e.g. if command --modules asm:dedicated is used for provisioning.

I could achieve the desired outcome by explicitly disabling provisioning of LTM with ltm:none within the --modules option (e.g. by using --modules ltm:none,asm:dedicated to provision ASM-dedicated).

If this is the intended use of the --modules option, it should be documented.
