NimbostratusIt turns out that the key error message here was:
2014-10-02 23:30:38.939 ERROR neutron.services.loadbalancer.drivers.f5.bigip.icontrol_driver [-] Could not communicate with all iControl devices: device bigipeagcloudqa2.int.thomsonreuters.com BIG-IP not provisioned for management LARGE. extramb=0
The following can be done to rectify this, perform either:
1) Under resource provisioning (in the UI) change Management (MGMT) to 'Large' 2) Run 'tmsh modify sys db provision.extramb value 500' (from the advanced shell not tmos)
It seems that performing both steps allows the plugin to work as well. Hope this helps someone else
