iControl Failing since upgrade 9.3.1 to 10.2.4

We have recently undergone an upgrade from version 9.3.1 to version 10.2.4 HF7

 

The below monitor is no longer working.

 

monitor inet_gw_http_mon { defaults from http interval 15 timeout 47 dest 10.230.0.14:http recv "\x0D\x0A\x0D\x0A1\x0D\x0A\x0D\x0A" send "POST /iControl/iControlPortal.cgi HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: 10.230.0.14\r\nUser-Agent: iControl_mon\r\nContent-Length: 636\r\nContent-Type: text/xml; charset=\"UTF-8\"\r\nAuthorization: Basic aWNvbnRyb2w6Q0I2SkdmMlk=\r\nAccept: text/xml\r\nAccept: multipart/*\r\nSOAPAction: \"urn:iControl:LocalLB/Poolget_active_member_count\"\r\n\r\ninet_rtr_pool\r\n\r\n\r\n" }

 

For the sake of context,

 

This is an outbound proxy service with a very basic configuration of

 

BIGIP02 -> Proxies -> BIGIP01

 

The script above seems to poll BIGIP01 querying the status of inet_rtr_pool which contains an IP of a Router further upstream,

 

So a couple of questions:

 

1) Is there a way to get this working exactly the same again (i.e. Syntax change )

 

2) Is there a way to get the same functionality working again, but maybe in a different way. I was thinking a VIP on BIGIP01 with the Pool assigned. If we did change the way it did it, would there be any other loss of functionality.

 

Any help appreciated.
