The python equivalent of the above as below. In addition, it checks the status of two hosts in HA (assuming both hosts have the same userid/passwd).

 

from f5.bigip import ManagementRoot

for ip in ['192.168.226.41', '192.168.226.131']:
    mgmt = ManagementRoot(ip, 'admin', 'admin')
    fail = mgmt.tm.sys.failover.load()
    failOverStat = fail.apiRawValues['apiAnonymous'].rstrip()
    print "%s: Ver %s, %s" % (ip, mgmt.tmos_version, failOverStat)

 

Sample output:

 

192.168.226.41: Ver 13.0.0, Failover standby for 0d 04:35:49
192.168.226.131: Ver 13.0.0, Failover active for 0d 04:35:52
