Determine pools defined for WideIP

According to the documentation:

 

 

pools -list

 

* Returns a list of pools in the wideIP.

 

pools [blue|green|yellow|red|gray]

 

* Returns the number of pools in the wideIP in the specified state.

 

pools -list [blue|green|yellow|red|gray]

 

* Returns a list of pools in the wideIP in the specified state.

 

 

It looks like -list flag should list all pools regardless of state, since I can then qualify it to only see pools of a specific state if I want to.

 

 

I was also pointing out that the results of the command are different if I have a 'Last Resort Pool' defined in the WideIP - from when I don't. I still think it's a bit strange ;-)

 

 

Also - there are times (in our environment anyway) where I need to get DNS (WideIP's) setup before the hosts are actually available. In this case - they are DR servers that I need to setup DNS for, but the servers aren't yet available for monitoring to succeed. And I don't always rely on the GTM to determine health - I want it to give out the correct IP's. We have other devices (load balancing) that can route based on health status.

 

 

So . . . I am looking for the command to return all pools in this case - regardless of state . . .
