Identify and delete unused objects from F5 DNS (GTM)

HI,

iHealth gives us option to identify the unused obkects for BigIP LTM but no such options are available for BigIP DNS/GTM. Is there a method to identify the unused GTM objects, like the WideIP, Pool, server, Monitors etc

    You should write script or some command combination to find the orphan object in DNS

    As Samir mentioned, a script is warranted here. You can start with the Config Search tmsh script, which will search a given pattern and return objects matching. You can use it and iterate manually, or you can customize to meet your needs. HTH...Jason
