Get "unit id" from redundancy with iControl

Hi,

 

 

how can i get the "Unit-ID" from the redundancy-section?

 

 

In the Web-Interface you can get the info with

 

System - High Availability - Redundancy - General Properties

 

 

bye Andreas

 

 

  • Hi splion,

     

     

    Try the get_platform_id (http://devcentral.f5.com/wiki/iControl.Management__Device__get_platform_id.ashx) method.

    Hi Splion,

     

     

    I think this may be what you're looking for: http://devcentral.f5.com/wiki/iControl.Networking__SelfIP__get_unit_id.ashx

  • Hi,

     

     

    thanks for your replies.

     

     

    management::Device is a feature of iControl v11 but i use the v10.

     

     

    The unit-id from SelfIP::get_unit_id is not the Unit-ID i need. I need the Unid-ID from the redundancy-section.

     

     

    bye Andreas

     

  • Splion,

     

    you will find the HA unit id in the DB variable "Failover.UnitID". iControl gives access to the DB variables via Management::DBVariable::query.

     

     

    Hope that helps.

     

     

    Regards
