ITCMGlobalLB.BaseServer.get_virtual_server_list ServerKey?

I'm trying to retrieve a simple list of virtual servers on a 3dns unit.

 

 

Looking at the SDK it mentions:

 

 

ITCMGlobalLB.BaseServer.get_virtual_server_list

 

 

Parameters:

 

 

key ServerKey (The key of the server)

 

 

What is this key??

 

 

I might be looking in the wrong place. I'm basically trying to get a similar output to get_wideip_list

 

 

thanks

    Here's how the GlobalLB BaseServer interface works. 3-DNS has "servers" configured at the top level which are of the types (3-DNS, BIG-IP, HOST,

    EDGEFX, or ROUTER). A "server" can have 0-n virtual servers contained in it.

    So, if you want to find the virtual servers, you need to first make the ITCMGlobalLB::BaseServer::get_server_list() call 

    struct ITCMGlobalLB::ServerKey { 
   String name; 
   String addr; 
   AppType type; 
 }; 
  
 struct ITCMGlobalLB::ServerAttribute { 
   ServerKey server; 
   short number_virtual_servers; 
   EnableStatus status; 
   StatColor state; 
 }; 
  
 ServerAttribute[] get_server_list( 
     in AppType type 
 );
    which will return a list of ServerAttributes containing the ServerKey's that correspond to the AppType you requested. You then use these values to in the ITCMGlobalLB::BaseServer::get_virtual_server_list() method to get the information about the virtual servers contained in those servers. 

    struct ITCMGlobalLB::VirtualServerAttribute { 
   IPPortDefinition source; 
   IPPortDefinition translated; 
   IPPortDefinition[] depends; 
   long ratio; 
   EnableStatus status; 
   StatColor state; 
 }; 
  
 VirtualServerAttribute[] get_virtual_server_list( 
     in ServerKey key 
 );

    Hope this clears things up...
