Obtain operational state of SfRserver?
sfrserver operational state serverfarm realserver

Is there any way to obtain the operational state of a serverfarm realserver via the ANM (4.1) web services API?  The SfRserver data type includes the admin state (i.e. IS, ISS, or OOS) but when I compare that to the ANM web interface there is both an admin state and an operational state for a serverfarm realserver -- with the operational state indicating the latest probe status for the real server (e.g. Up or Probe Failed)

ANM 4.1 ws API does not provide the operational state for serverfarm realserver. There is no monitoring API in this ANM release.

Any plans to add this to a future version of the ANM web services API?

One of the challenges we have to support the monitoring API is real-time data, when API gets the operational state from ANM database, the state may not be current state on device, since ANM polling the data from device periodically. Before we support the monitoring API, maybe better for you to get the operational data from device through SNMP.
