Thank You Jason,

I watched one of the videos from Agility 2017 'The F5 Python SDK for iControl REST'.

I was interested in the 'reducing Boolean pairs'. I found the following part of the response. 
'_meta_data': {
        'reduction_forcing_pairs': [('enabled',
        'disabled'),
        ('online',
        'offline'),
        ('vlansEnabled',
        'vlansDisabled')]

However when i tried the following i get an error. Is 'reducing Boolean pairs' not supported for virtual server configs ? 

_virtual = g_f5mgmt.tm.ltm.virtuals.virtual.load(partition=_vs_prt_name, name=_vs_name)     
print(_virtual.enabled)     
print(_virtual.disabled)      

Output:    
True    
'' object has no attribute 'disabled'
