CirrostratusChecking if Virtual Server disabled within iRule
Within an iRule, is there a way to check if a virtual server is disabled?
My goal is to display a pretty maintenance page if a virtual server is administratively disabled (as opposed to down)....
Additional find: With 11.5 and the REST-based iControl, you can issue a side-band call to the (icrd) REST interface to perform just about any TMSH functions you want, including perhaps checking the status of those pool members to see if they are offline (due to monitor) or manually disabled. Net upshot is that a virtual server needs to be enabled in order for any iRules associated with it to trigger. Manually disabling a virtual server "disables" execution of any associated iRules except for existing open connections.
