I did grab the raw xml and here is what I received:
xmlns:E="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
xmlns:A="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"
xmlns:s="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:y="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
xmlns:iControl="urn:iControl"
E:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"> xmlns:m="urn:iControl:LocalLB/Pool"> s:type="A:Array"
A:arrayType="y:string[0]">
If I open my browser and go to:
https://myf5server/tmui/Control/jspmap/tmui/locallb/pool/list.jsp?Filter=*
I do see a list of 8 pools.
When I turn on the trace info as you stated above, I receive the following:
