You shouldn't need to much customization to this script to suit your needs:

Hello Jason,

 

 

Basically I want to STOP all traffic (no active / or persistent connections) on a NODE.

 

 

AFAIK - I have to mark down the Node in STATE_DISABLED (Monitor Only - not session state)

 

 

please correct me if I am wrong.

 

 

As per http://devcentral.f5.com/wiki/default.aspx/iControl/DisablingNodeServers.html I have to first get all Pools and then get all members and the find my Node in which pools it is and then mark the monitor state as STATE_DISABLED

 

 

So can you please point me to correct monitor state

 

 

is it sufficient

 

 

mstate = b.LocalLB.PoolMember.typefactory.create('LocalLB.PoolMember.MemberMonitorState')

 

mstate.member = member_factory(b,x)

 

mstate.monitor_state = 'STATE_DISABLED'

 

monitor_states.append(mstate)

 

 

b.LocalLB.PoolMember.set_monitor_state(pool_names = [POOL], monitor_states = [mstate_seq])

 

 

Sorry - but need some detailed info of the state.

 

 

Thanks for your help in explaining it.

This link (Click Here) covers the monitor states themselves. You'll need the LocalLB::NodeAddress interface. The methods addressed in the link provided are the same for node as they are for pool member. Note, however, that forcing a pool member or node offline doesn't stop all traffic, it just stops all non-active connections.
