I upgraded my SLX and additional pollers to 10.4 yesterday. So far I love the new features. The F5 support is huge and the tables look great. I do agree with some others that have mentioned the desire for more historical graphs as it relates to pools, vips, members, and nodes. But to me, perhaps the biggest opportunity to enhance support for F5 devices would be to add Advanced Alerting fields that allowed us to alert on pool, node, and vip status. Today, I have web of SNMP alerts configured to alert me when a pool, pool member, or vip fail, but managing so many SNMP traps (I have to create a traps for each pool/vip instance) is beyond painful. If we could use the Advanced Alerting Manager to notify us of failures on these objects life would be grand. It's all I want for XMAS. I looked and I do see F5 alert types have been added, but I didn't see any fields relating to the items mentioned above. Is anybody else looking for, or perhaps even found, something similar? Perhaps this would be a great enhancement for 10.4.1? The data is already there, we just need a way to take advantage of it for alerting. Great work on 10.4 so far, let's keep it going! test
