Hi Sheela,

you find here what's you need: https://support.f5.com/csp/article/K13310

Setting the node state to Disabled using the command line:

modify /ltm node  session user-disabled

then 

save /sys config

Setting the node state to Forced Offline using the command line:

modify /ltm node  state user-down session user-disabled

then 

save /sys config

Deleting existing connections to the Disabled or Forced Offline node (Optional):

tmsh delete /sys connection ss-server-addr

Let me now if you need additional info...

Regards
