Mar 27, 2006iControl popup dialogue box.
Greetings all,
I have 2 different versions of BigIP v4. v4.11 and v4.14. We have a vbs script that takes servers out of the pool. When it does this it pops up a dialogue box that has the IP address of the port about to be disabled as well as a single OK button. The script will not complete until it is clicked. As you can imagine this might be a hang up for automation. The odd part of all this is the fact that the same script (barring the line: bigipReq.node_Login "192.168.xx.x", "xxx", "xxxxxx", "xxxxxxx") works for the v4.14 version and does NOT throw the popup dialogue box. Is there something on the BigIP that might have changed between versions to account for this odd behavior?
Thanks, and here is part of the .vbs script below.

Set bigipReq = Nothing
Set bigipReq = CreateObject("iControl.BIGIP")
bigipReq.node_Login "192.168.xx.x", "xxx", "xxxxxx", "xxxxxxx"
node_ips(0) = strDomain
Set nodes(0) = CreateObject("iControl.ITCMLocalLB.Node.ITCMCommonIPPortDefinition")
nodes(0).address = strDomain
nodes(0).port = 80
bigipReq.Node.disable_nodes(nodes)
Wscript.Echo "Server Disabled in BIG-IP"
mystring = strcomputername + " Disabled in BIG-IP, IP of the server is " + strDomain + Cstr(Now) + chr(13) & Chr(10)
Logfile.write(mystring)
Wscript.Sleep 10000

As I dig deeper on this issue, I have found that the VB script is apparently calling an iControl.dll file. This appears to be compiled from many different .vb files. Is this something that could have been provided by F5? - If it was provided by F5, then it definitely wasn't part of our standard iControl SDK distribution. I'm not sure where you got it from.
