Assign a monitor to an already existing node using iControl

Hello everyone,

I am using the python bigsuds iControl library. I have created a couple of nodes and now trying to assign a monitor to them. Looked at the API reference but it throws the same error overtime. I am not sure what it is expecting in "type".

>>> c.LocalLB.NodeAddressV2.set_monitor_rule(['node1'],['MONITOR_RULE_TYPE_SINGLE', 0L, ['icmp']])
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "", line 1, in 
  File "build/bdist.macosx-10.10-intel/egg/bigsuds.py", line 412, in wrapped_method
  File "build/bdist.macosx-10.10-intel/egg/bigsuds.py", line 472, in process

bigsuds.ArgumentError: "MONITOR_RULE_TYPE_SINGLE" is not a valid value for LocalLB.MonitorRule, expecting: type, quorum, monitor_templates

Also, i think i have to use the set_default_node_monitor after this. Has anyone been in a similar situation. Would really appreciate any help.

Thanks!

  • Shouldn't this;

    ...['MONITOR_RULE_TYPE_SINGLE', 0L, ['icmp']])
    

    Look like this;

    ...['MONITOR_RULE_TYPE_SINGLE', '0L', 'icmp'])
    

    I assume the quorum value can be any old rubbish
