tmsh command to create pool, add node and set default health monitor

Question

I'm a noob to DevCentral and at using tmsh.  I did some searches and can't seem to find anything showing the command to set the health monitor when creating a pool and adding a member.  So far this is what I have:&nbsp;
(tmos) create ltm pool poolname members add {servername:port}&nbsp;
This worked fine but I need to add the heath monitor:
/Common
    tcp_half_open&nbsp;
I would be greatful if someone could point me in the right direction.&nbsp;

Hey Mike. It'll be something like members add ( x.x.x.x:port { monitor mon_name} ...
Page 880, section 35 - 32 in the tmsh manual for v11.4: sorry this link is for v11.4.1 but it should be close: http://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/products/big-ip_ltm/manuals/product/bigip-tmsh-11-4-1.html

To create the pool and monitor at the same time in one command do this:
create ltm pool /MyPartition/MyPool members add { /MyPartition/MyNode:80  } monitor http
I've tried it different ways, the important thing is that 'monitor http' be outside the brackets.
