I’m trying to change the order of the two pools assigned to my F5 GTM wide IP. I have a playbook and with this playbook I’m able to change the load balance method but when I change the order for the pools nothing happens. I don’t get an error it just doesn’t change anything. Has anyone else had this experience.
