Setting VLAN on a virtual server

Pulling my hair out trying to enable a VLAN for a virtual server. This is what I'm doing -- "v" is the object reference to LocalLB.VirtualServer:

 

 

 

vlan_filter_list = v.typefactory.create('Common.VLANFilterList')

 

enabled_state = v.typefactory.create('Common.EnabledState')

 

vlan_filter_list.state = enabled_state.STATE_ENABLED

 

vlan_filter_list.vlans = ["external"]

 

v.set_vlan([vip_name], [vlan_filter_list])

 

 

 

Unfortunately, it throws an exception:

 

 

 

xml.sax._exceptions.SAXParseException: :1:49: syntax error

 

 

 

Any ideas? I'm pretty stuck. :(

    Sorry for my absence from the thread. Getting pulled in a million directions.

     

     

    Here's an example attempt to open an iControl issue (not this particular issue, but a different one):

     

     

    iControl - certain calls return empty when using partitions

     

    Case Number C864409

     

     

    Support said "all iControl support has to go through Devcentral."

     

     

    I opened a new case per your suggestion and basically said "please escalate this". A new case was open: new case C882637.

    Looks like the problem disappeared in the upgrade to 10.2.1 HF3 from 10.2.1 HF1.

     

     

    Magic!
