Can't delete monitors added via API with is_read_only flag

I created a few monitors using the API, and for some reason perl translated is_read_only => "false" to a boolean with value "true". I now have these monitors lying around in the UI, and I can't delete...

Very lame solution but it works (at least for me...)

 

 

1. starting with your template "badtemplate"

 

2. Log into the GUI and create another template "badtemplate1" of the same type as "badtemplate"

 

3. Save

 

4. Open a console shell and edit the /config/bigip.conf

 

5. rename the "monitor badtemplate1 {" line to "monitor badtemplate {"

 

6. Save and exit the editor.

 

7. issue a "b load".

 

 

Then login to the GUI and you'll be able to delete monitor template "badtemplate"
