What is LTMPoolMemberItem?

The commandlet Get-F5.LTMPoolmember includes a parameter option to use [[-PoolMember] ], but I haven't found any reference as to what LTMPoolMemberItem actually is. I am trying to write a simple script to monitor pool members and use the least amount of parameters as possible. This seems like it could be a good solution, if I only knew what to reference.

    The various cmdlets included in the PowerShell snapin, were built around some use cases we came up with. The LTMPoolMemberItem is native to the snapin and we never really documented all those as they were really originally built as a set of sample code. PowerShell allows you to dynamically query the structures for types but that's not always the easiest way to go.

     

    If that cmdlet isn't really working for you, you can always use the (Get-F5.iControl) cmdlet to return an iControl.Interfaces object containing all of our core iControl interfaces defined in our iControl API.

    You could then do something like this

     

    (Get-F5.iControl).LocalLBPool.get_member(@("pool1"))

    which is documented in the API here:

    Hope this helps...
