Event subscription in /config/eventd.xml file
Our application subscribes for event notifications from the F5 box by registering in the /config/eventd.xml file. As I understand, for the device to send notifications the enabled 1 /enabled flag needs to be set to '1' in the xml file. 15 200 200 9181CCCE-1974-DA0F-ED7D-A58C2FF5188 192.168.12.184_EventSubscription 17365880163140632576 0 http://192.168.12.184:8080/AppNGWeb/services/Management.EventNotificationPort admin YWRtaW4= -1 1 60 0 1391582803 1391582803 1391586450 0 0 1 ` After setting the flag to '1' and stopping and starting the eventd service, the bigip sends a few packets to the ip:port configured in the xml file and then automatically changes the flag to '0' and sends no more packets. I would like to understand how the events.xml works and how bigip handles event subscriptions.
No GTM PoolMember availability status in Event Subscriptions?
I'm using the iControl EventSubscription interface to monitor modifications of my GTM and LTM objects. I'd like to keep track of changes to the availability status of GTM PoolMembers. The problem is that I don't get any events streamed when the availability status changes. When I disable my corresponding Virtual Server at the LTM level the poolmember availability on the GTM goes to red, but I don't see any events come through that have this change. I only get an EVENTTYPE_MODIFY on an OBJECTTYPE_VIRTUAL_SERVER object. My subscriptions are set up with the type EVENTTYPE_ALL, so I should be getting all the events. Am I missing something here to see the GTM PoolMember availability status changes?
