I am using powershell F5-LTM module to connect to F5 and get data

$secpasswd = ConvertTo-SecureString "1234567890" -AsPlainText -Force

$MyLTM_IP = "12.18.10.8"
$mycreds = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential "User_Auto", $secpasswd
$session = $null

#Create an F5 session
$session = New-F5Session -LTMName $MyLTM_IP -LTMCredentials $mycreds -PassThru

there are details like below I am able to fetch for the virtual server

"Vip_Name","Vip_IP","Pool_Name","Node_Name","Node_IP"

But there is a parameter call Availability which I am not able to find. attached image for reference

below is the rest of the code

$vips = Get-VirtualServer -F5Session $session -Name "VS_224_PPR_50003"
    $report = @()

foreach($vip in $vips) {
    $Vip_Name = $vip.Name
    $inputString = $vip.destination
    $vip_virtual_addr = $inputString -match '\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}' | Out-Null 
    $vip_ip_addr = $matches[0]
    $vippool = $vip.pool        
    $vippool_name = $vippool.Name
    
    $get_pool_node = Get-PoolMember -F5Session $session -PoolName $vippool
    
    $firstNode = $true
    foreach($nods in $get_pool_node) {
        $Nodes_name = ($nods.name) -split ':' | Select-Object -First 1
        $Nodes_ip = $nods.Address
        
        if ($firstNode) {
            # Add the data to the array for the first node
            $report += [PSCustomObject]@{
                Vip_Name = $Vip_Name
                Vip_Status = "available"  # Assuming status is available, adjust as needed

Please let me know how can I get the data

• powershell
• f5

• 1 $vip |ConvertTo-Json or $nods |ConvertTo-Json might make it easier to inspect the returned data visually – Mathias R. Jessen Commented Apr 1 at 10:44

updating...from the iControl REST json response, you need to get the nested stats to see the availability details. Not exactly sure how that manifests in the powershell module, but the request is:

https://x.x.x.x/mgmt/tm/ltm/virtual/your-virtual-name/stats

And the resulting json payload (stripped down to what you care about):

{
    "entries": {
        "https://localhost/mgmt/tm/ltm/virtual/your-virtual-name/stats": {
            "nestedStats": {
                "entries": {
                    "status.availabilityState": {
                        "description": "offline"
                    },
                    "status.enabledState": {
                        "description": "enabled"
                    },
                    "status.statusReason": {
                        "description": "The children pool member(s) are down"
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
}
