The pool belongs to a partition (and I specified the partition in the call to get_object_status), why would the API look for the members of the pool in the "active" partition instead of in the partition of the pool? I'm not using sessions, and it sounds like that may be part of the problem. Since sessions are not required, the API should behave in a predictable manner with or without using sessions. Two calls to the same method with the same input give different results based on a state change outside of my application...this is clearly a bug in the API.
