Smart way to convert a PoolMemberDefinitionSequenceSequence to a IPPortDefinitionSequenceSequence

Hi Matt,

 

I'm not trying to create, I'm trying to convert.

 

 

but I could be approaching it incorrectly. The end goal is to be able to print|set the enabled state of a GTM pool member. here are the params and response type for the GlobalLB.PoolMember.get_enabled_state method:

 

 

poolmemobj = b.GlobalLB.PoolMember

 

In [69]: poolmemobj.get_enabled_state.params

 

Out[69]:

 

[(pool_names, u'Common.StringSequence'),

 

(members, u'Common.IPPortDefinitionSequenceSequence')]

 

 

In [70]: poolmemobj.get_enabled_state.response_type

 

Out[70]: u'GlobalLB.PoolMember.MemberEnabledStateSequenceSequence'

 

 

so the immediate problem i'm trying to solve is the best way to create/convert a GTM object into a Common.IPPortDefinitionSequenceSequence. where i'm having trouble is that if I use the GlobalLB.Pool.get_member method to create a list of pool members, the resulting object is of type PoolMemberDefinitionSequenceSequence, which is NOT the same as an IPPortDefinitionSequenceSequence. Each object(?) in the PoolMemberDefinitionSequence has one or more address/port values, but also an order value which seems to be the main differentiator from an IPPortDefinition.

 

 

so i'm asking if looping through a PoolMemberDefinitionSequenceSequence to strip off the 'order' value and create/fill a new IPPortDefinitionSequenceSequence that I can then pass into the GlobalLB.PoolMember.get_enabled_state method is the best way to do things.

 

 

make sense?
