hi,
how to find if a pool and vip was created and later deleted
please rule out the option of checking the dates of the bigip.conf saved manually to some location.
Thanks.

You can look in /var/log/ltm and the rotated ltm.1, ltm.2, etc log files to see if there's any messages related to the vip.
Ideally you should turn on Audit logging in the log options, and then there will be a record of which user performed what activity. Then you can look in the GUI under Audit logs or in /var/log/audit. If audit logging isn't enabled then there may not be any other logs in /var/log/ltm (still worth a look though).

if user auditing is enabled, the records of such activity would be logged in either /var/log/ltm (earlier versions) or /var/log/audit (later versions)

In the GUI, System/Logs/Options and at the bottom there's dropdowns for enabling Audit logging.

If the change was made via the GUI, the httpd access logs might have some relevant info. You can check under /var/log/httpd for the logs.
