Modify Data-Group with Power Shell

Are you using Rest or the PS Snapin?

Yes Dear, I succeed only to add string but i need to add string=value

Been a while since I've been called dear by a stranger on a technical internet forum. Gives me a warm and fuzzy feeling... :)

You did not answer my question though. Are you using Rest or the iControl PS Snapin by Joe Pruitt? There's also the module by Joel Newton.

I use the PS Snapin

OK, please hold, I'll see what I can do.

Hey,

Thank you so much. This is what i suceed to do so far:

Initialize- -Hostname 172.16.100.227 -Username admin -Password admin $StringClassA = (Get-;;) ); $ValuesAofA = (Get-($StringClassA); Write-Host "Data Group DNS-DB" Write-Host "IP's:" $StringClassA[0].members Write-Host "Countris" $ValuesAofA[0] $Class = (Get- $StringClass = New-Object -typename iControl.LocalLBClassStringClass $StringClass.name = "Test" $StringClass.members = (".idscs", ".bsmds") $Class.add_string_class_member((,$StringClass)) $ValueClass = New-Object -typename iControl.LocalLBClassValueClass $ValueClass.name = "Test" $ValueClass.members = ("2", "1") $Class.add_Value_class_member((,$ValueClass)) $Class.get_value_class_list()

I only succed to add string. Thank you.

Yeah, it's a bit tricky. First of all the iControl API calls it class while the Web UI calls it data-group list. Then there is two separate methods to add a new member with a value:

1. One for adding the member
2. One for adding the value to the member

Here's a working concept script to add a member to an existing data group list of type string using the iControl Snapin:

Allow TLS1.2 if you have forced that on the management interface (and you should)
[Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls12

Initialize Snapin
if ( (Get-PSSnapin | Where-Object { $_.Name -eq "iControlSnapIn"}) -eq $null ){
    Add-PSSnapIn iControlSnapIn
}

$User = 'user'
$Password = 'password'
$Partition = "Common"
$BigIP = "1.1.1.1"

Connect to the BigIP
$Success = Initialize-F5.iControl -HostName $BigIP -Username $User -Password $Password

Get an iControl Handle
$F5 = Get-F5.iControl


$f5partitions = $f5.ManagementPartition
$f5partitions.set_active_partition($Partition)

Create a new String class (data group list of type string)
$entry = New-Object -TypeName iControl.LocalLBClassStringClass

Which data group list you want to add a member to
$entry.name = "Mydatagrouplist"
What is the member name?
$entry.members = @(,"key")
What is the value?
$value = @("value")

First create the key 
$f5.LocalLBClass.add_string_class_member(@($entry)) 

Then set the value
$f5.LocalLBClass.set_string_class_member_data_value(@($entry), @($value));

Hope it helps.
