Is possible to create a down Virtual Server when creating the first VIP?

Hi,

Here some quick alternatives for your project.

Option 1: Concatenate tmsh in Advanced Shell

tmsh create ltm virtual test_vs destination 10.1.1.5:80 disabled pool test_pool ip-protocol tcp source-address-translation { type automap } && tmsh modify ltm virtual-address 10.1.1.5 enabled no arp disabled icmp-echo disabled

Option 2: Concatenate iControl REST

curl -sku admin:admin https://<host>/mgmt/tm/ltm/virtual -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST
  -d '{"name":"test_vs", \
        "destination":"10.1.1.5:80", \
        "mask":"255.255.255.255", \
        "pool":"test_pool", \
        "profilesReference": {"items": [ {"context": "all", "name": "tcp"}] }, \
        "sourceAddressTranslation": {"type": "automap"} }'
 
curl -sku admin:admin https://<host>/mgmt/tm/ltm/virtual-address -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST
  -d '{"name":"10.1.1.5", \
        "address":"10.1.1.5", \
        "arp":"enabled", \
        "enabled":"yes", \
        "icmpEcho":"enabled" }'

I hope it helps.

Cheers!
