so here is what looks like this issue is.. I have many F5's and unfortunately I am stuck with some that are running 9.2x code, is archaic.... I have a few running newer 10.x .. So I decided to try and run the same code against the newer version and of course it works great. So on the F5's that are running the 9.2.x code, this call will not work properly.... I have been able to get all other calls to icontrol to work so this is the only problem one..... The funny thing is that my original code that I did not post here worked as well on version 10 LTM. So I guess I will have to cahlk this up to some difference in how the option is set???? not sure as I have been banging my head on this one for a couple days......
