Hello Carl/Andrew/Jason,

 

Could you guys please help me guide how to run this script successfully? I mean I am able to run the script from the BIGIQ but its failing to discover any modules on BIGIP LTM. Its returning with a failure. Do we need to enable anything on BIGIQ or BIGIP to get make this call happen?

 

Here is the output. It doesnt give much details as to whats causing the discovery failure. And I have no programming/Automation knowledge. My management wants to get this script implemented as early as possible as a cron Job. First I need to test this script successfully before I can get that cron job created. I have attached the output in a screenshot to this comment. Any help is greatly appreciated.

 

I am skipping trust establishment as the devices were already added to BIGIQ manually along time ago.
