Locking on BigIP
Is there anyway to lock an operation taking place on BigIP? I have two nodes that contain the software to register with BigIP (create monitor,pool,irule,node, tie rule to pool,tie rule to Virtual server).
When I try to register both nodes simultaneously (with the same name for the monitor, pool), I would like to lock the commands create pool, create monitor while the second node is waiting to ensure that both nodes do not attempt to create the same monitor, pool together.
currently, the solution is to introduce a delay between the operations taking place. This is an external program enforcing the delay. I would like to do a more cleaner solution and wondered if there is any way of doing so.
Thanks,
Pallavi
