ILX::notify

Description

Creates a handle for future use by ILX::call and ILX::notify. This handle is a reference to a running ILX plugin extension. The lifetime of this variable affects the behavior of the ILX target if controlled by BIG-IP. Instances of the plugin extension will be held in draining mode as long as there are open references to the ILX handle in any event.
Sends a message to the specified node method but does not wait for the method to complete before returning.
TCL_OK
is returned if the message was successfully queued. Any other return value indicates the message could not be queued.
Note: Whereas ILX commands were introduced in 12.0, they were not available until 12.1 without an EA license.
