Big IQ irule intellegence

We have a large amount of pools on one of our LTMs that have a high likely hood of only being referenced directly from with in an irule.

 

Is Big IQ intelligent enough to ensure that these pools/nodes are deployed wherever the irule referencing them is deployed?

 

Thanks, -J

    BIG-IQ has a big IQ, but I don't think it is smart enough to take care of that.

    I don't think BIG-IQ would automatically deploy other objects that are referenced via an iRule. However, the same way you get an error when deploying via GUI, BIG-IQ should give an error to deploy the iRule.

    01070151:3: Rule [/Common/abc] error: Unable to find pool (abcddddd) referenced at line 5: [pool abcddddd]

    Anyway, there is an easy way to be sure, try and post here the result. I don't have a setup I can test that easily, otherwise, I would do.
