Scripting BIG-IP Pool membership

I regularly have to add and remove many servers from multiple pools as part of making our systems unavailable during outages.

 

 

Is there a way I can automate/script this process? Is there a scripting language or tool I can use? Any help/direction would be much appreciated. I have searched but have not found anything, - but I find it difficult to believe that nothing is available..?

 

 

 

Many thanks for any help

  • I hadn't heard of tmsh before... - will research it, many thanks nitass :)
  • ...I think iControl would be helpful in this instance as well. If you want to use an outside program to interface with the box, iControl interfaces with a lot of different languages, and is very powerful. Depending on your level of comfort coding, this could be just about as easy.
