NimbostratusLocalLB.VirtualServer.add_rule question
I tried to apply a rule to a virtual server, but it does not seem to work.
What format should the parameter 'virtual_servers' take. Is that '1.2.3.4:80' or the name of the virtual server? ...
What do you mean when you said that you don't see that it ever makes any configuration changes? After you execute the add_rule() method, the rule should show up in the virtual servers resource list. If it is not showing up there, then odds are there is an issue with the rule itself. I'd try adding the rule manually through the GUI. Odds are that won't work as well.
If you mean that after you reboot your configuration changes are not persisted, then that's an issue with the way iControl works. All iControl calls are made to the systems running configuration. To persist across loads, you will need to call the System::ConfigSync:::save_configuration() method to persist your changes to disk.
