We use an iControl app so that non-F5 admins can manage their pools (bring pool members in and out of service, etc). The app works great if all objects associated with a pool are in the same folder (for example, /prod/shared is one of our folders - so all pool members and the pool itself are in "/prod/shared"). We have run into an issue where the iControl app throws an exception if a pool member resides in the "Common" partition. For example, the pool is in /prod/shared but the pool members associated with that pool have their nodes in /Common/shared. Any ideas on how to get the iControl application to understand that pool members are not in the relative path?
Thanks Spence

Spence,
If you reference the pool member by absolute path... /Partition(Folder)/Member it will work as expected.
If you are unsure where a pool member resides, you can retrieve it with LocalLB::Pool::get_member_v2 instead of LocalLB::Pool_Member::get_member. The "v2" method includes the path as part of the member name.
See: pool_member_v2
Spence_FaschingWe are blowing up when using "LocalLB::Pool::get_all_statistics" Is there a comparable v11 only version that will also include the path when querying the members of each pool?
The get_all_member_statistics takes a pool list (array of pool names) as an argument.
