F5 config Sync & pool status question

Hope I can answer the two queries.

1. When you change the config the local commit id changes and reports this change to the peer. This causes the Changes Pending msg. Changing a config back won't change this increment.

    

2. A disabled pool member can still receive active and persistent connection, hence it's still, in theory, available. If the pool monitor failed on all pool members then it would go red.

    

Hope this helps,
