is there a reference manual? I have not been able to get the state of a given pool member i.e. get the pool, get the members, find out which ones are disable or not working
Have tried Get-F5.LTMPoolMemberState gives me nothing back. No error, but no data.
Anyone have any suggestions for a way to turn F5 pool member off/on? and then check at end to make sure they are all back on.

Get-Command -Module iControlSnapIn and get-help may be useful. I don't know that there is any manual as the module is created and published by devcentral. https://devcentral.f5.com/d/microsoft-powershell-with-icontrol
Ken_50697Thanks. the get command just gives you a list of command. the get-help is slight more useful, but again it is just a list of parameters with no explanation. e.g. LTMPoolMemberItem or

Try calling into the core API. The Get-F5.iControl cmdlet will return the lower level iControl API objects. Here's an example to get you started:

There are a lot of PowerShell examples I've written over the years in the PowerShell section of the iControl wiki at:
