modifying pool member via CLI

I'm looking for a way to script modifying pools. Ideally it would be a graceful method, only allow active connections, but forcing the member down is perfectly acceptable.

 

 

I know you can do this through the gui, but due to recent event we would like to make this process as consistent as possible.

 

 

 

I thought something like this might work....

 

 

b pool test_pool pool member 192.168.0.2 down

 

 

but...

 

 

Any suggestions?

 

 

Thank!

  • Setting the pool member to down should allow existing and persistent connections to continue. SOL7566 () for your version would have version specific info on the options as well.

  • There is a perl script in the Code Share that will do this via IControl.
