Nimbostratusiterate over return of get_session_status
I have no issues with creating something like this and then get at the value assigned to port or whatever:
>>> test =m.typefactory.create('Common.IPPortDefinition')
>>> test
(Common.IPPortDefinition){
address = None
port = None
}
>>> test.port=80
>>> test.port
80
>>> test
(Common.IPPortDefinition){
address = None
port = 80
}
However, what I cant seem to wrap my head around is this:
[[(LocalLB.PoolMember.MemberSessionStatus){
member =
(Common.IPPortDefinition){
address = "1.1.1.1"
port = 80
}
session_status = "SESSION_STATUS_ENABLED"
}]]
How would I iterate over a bunch of members like this and get just the address:port:session_status values. I know this has to be something simple but for some reason I just can quote get it. I was able to grab the session_status but not quite the right way.. Anyway thanks for any pointers...
andy_12_5042so I ended up doing something like this:
stats=m.get_session_status(['temp'])
for item in stats[0]:
... print item.member.address , item.member.port , item.session_status
1.1.1.1 80 SESSION_STATUS_ENABLED
Is that the correct way to get at this.. Well I guess the fact that it works kind of answers that. So, maybe better question is there a better way. I will worry about making it pretty later. (formatted or whatever)
L4L7_53191That's the way to do it. One of the tricks with calls like this is that iControl allows you to query for an entire list of objects. So your get_session_status() call could actually contain a list like:
['temp', 'pool1','pool2','pool3'], in which case your stats list would have 4 nested lists of LocalLB.PoolMember.MemberSessionStatus objects. To get at that information, you'd have to iterate over that list, as you've discovered :)
