Create pool with existing node memners

I am trying to create a new pool using tmsh with already existing node members.

 

 

I am using the following syntax:

 

 

 

tmsh create ltm pool /demo-dashboard/ddsdemo-web_http_pool members add { /demo-dashboard/10.93.52.16:80 /demo-dashboard/10.93.52.64:80 } monitor http

 

 

 

However, since those two nodes already exist in this partition, I get the following error:

 

 

 

Configuration error: Pool member node /demo-dashboard/10.93.52.16 and existing node /demo-dashboard/ddsdemo-web01 cannot use the same IP Address 10.93.52.16

 

 

 

What is the correct syntax to create a pool with nodes that have already been created?

    After googling for 3 hours, of course I figure it out 20 seconds after asking for help. For anyone else who needs to know, referencing the nodes by hostname and not by IP in the { } section will create the pool without errors.

    I’m facing the similar problem, when I’m adding the pool members on the pool, the F5 is throwing error mentioned below. Apparently, I checked the nodes IP on the F5 network map tools, the nodes have no hostname or domain name associated against the IP address on the F5 box

     

    01070734:3: Configuration error: Pool member node /XX.50.92.10 and existing node /xx.50.92.10%2 cannot use the same IP Address 54.50.92.10%2.

     

    Please advise
