3 years ago The customer issue was not filling in the template correctly and this can lead to a silently failure of the template resulting that the NICs aren't swapped. it is essential that all 'required' fields are filled in and nothing is left with a <> value.
Next to this the provided feedback from the field let to PM improving the templates with more guidance, which soon will be available in a GDM update.
Do you already have an issue opened with F5 support?
Partner has opened a case on behalf of the customer C3389447. This stops a customer project at the moment.

Description
The GDM templates startup levering the internet access from NIC0 to configure what is defined in cloud-init. After this phase, NIC0 and NIC1 should swap and make that NIC0 no becomes a TMM interface and NIC1 becomes management. This is not happening.
I kept a bootstrap timing of ~10min to leave the BIG-IP to do its job, but even after this time, swap hasn't happened. Also a manual reboot does not help.
As you can see in below config, only the management got configured.
