Pool_Member_Status_Page_on_a_Virtual_Server (Topic Changed)

that script is pycontrol v1. Don't go there... üôÇ

First, you need to install the pycontrol module available here: http://devcentral.f5.com/Community/GroupDetails/tabid/1082223/asg/4/aff/2108/showtab/groupforums/Default.aspx Click Here

Next, you need to use this updated version below. Note that the host, username, password, and a valid pool in the second function call in main (mine below is testpool) will need to reflect your environment. The reason the pool name has to be passed as a list is a limitation in the zip python method. If you don't pass as a list, the pool name will only be stored as the first character of the pool name.

                pools  = obj.get_list()
                status = obj.get_object_status(pool_names = pools)
