Check if a pool exists?
1) I know there is a method to get list of pools. But that seems very suboptimal if the requirement is to just check if the pool exists. I was looking at iControl->LocalLB->Pool APIs and I didn't find anything obvious other than using an API that could possibly throw an exception if the pool does not exist. But to depend on exception does not seem reliable either. Is there any way to simply check if the pool exists?
2) Is there a way to create pool and pool members in one API?
3) This should be obvious, but still to double check. Are the operations/APIs, especially the write APIs that change the state of F5 atomic?
