Get Current Device for Traffic Group in iControl

Is there a way to get the current device for a traffic group in an active/active cluster on v11 LTMs? I don't see this documented in iControl : Management : TrafficGroups. I have some automation tools that need to be aware of the "Current Device", so it knows which unit in the cluster to initially make changes on before performing a sync.

 

If I can't obtain it here, is there a way to query a Virtual Server or Virtual Address for this property?

 

Thanks!

  • in python:

    >>> b.Management.Device.get_local_device()
    '/Common/ltm1.dc.local'
    
  • I meant getting the device name which a certain traffic group is currently active on. Since my traffic group can move between devices, I need to know which one it is currently active on so that I can make changes on that particular device.

     

  • Does anyone know if the HAOrder object in iControl :: Management :: TrafficGroup :: get_ha_order will expose this information? If not, when is this expected?
