How to set priority/ratio on a pool member

Hi,

 

 

Here is my issue.

 

 

 

The iControl documentation give the arguments as (for priority) :

 

 

 

pool_names String[]

 

membersAddressPort[][]

 

priorities long[][]

 

 

 

 

 

 

so for example setting a pool and a member sequence as follow :

 

 

 

p = lb.LocalLB.Pool

 

 

 

members = p.typefactory.create('Common.AddressPortSequence')

 

member1 = p.typefactory.create('Common.AddressPort')

 

member2 = p.typefactory.create('Common.AddressPort')

 

member1.address = 'member1'

 

member2.address = 'member2'

member1.port = '80'

 

member2.port = '80'

 

 

 

members.item = [member1,member2]

 

 

 

p.get_member_priority(pool_names=['myPool'], members=[members])

 

 

 

=> [[10L, 0L]]

 

 

 

wich is ok with the type I should obtain.

 

 

 

so now, I want to set a different priority, i should be able to give the answer i just got as argument, since it the same type ( long [] [] )

 

 

 

p.set_member_priority(pool_names=['myPool'], members=[members], priorities= [[10L, 0L]])

 

=>...

 

=> suds.WebFault: Server raised fault: 'Error de-serializing array. Too many values in array. Array specified 1, found 2.'

 

 

 

I guess here we should use a typefactory to build the priorities, but the only thing I found is a 'Common.LongSequence' (from sdk aliases in common) :

 

 

 

test = p.typefactory.create('Common.LongSequence')

 

=> suds.TypeNotFound: Type not found: 'Common.LongSequence'

 

 

 

 

niether for Long64...

 

 

 

So here's the question, how to build the long[][] object that can be handle by suds in order to adjust a ratio or a priority for a set of pool ?

    Hi,

     

     

    the only way I've found to manage this is without using any typefactory but the syntax is a little bit osbure so here is it :

     

     

    p.set_member_priority(pool_names=['pool'],members= [members], priorities= [{'long':[10L,0L]}])

     

     

    members is a (Common.AddressPortSequence) struct.

     

     

    then, as priority, I pass a list of a struc defined as long and containing a list. It works.
