DESCRIPTION
       You can use the prober-pool component to configure prober pool
       definitions on the Global Traffic Manager. You use prober pools to
       control which BIG-IP servers on your network are utilized by GTM to
       monitor the up/down state of GTM resources. Once defined, prober pools
       can be set to monitor whole data centers or individual servers.

EXAMPLES
       create prober-pool my_pool members add {
	     bigip-dallas
	     bigip-london
	     }

       Creates a Global Traffic Manager prober pool with two members bigip-
       dallas and bigip-london. Members are selected using the global-
       availability load balancing method.

       delete prober-pool my_pool

       Deletes the prober pool my_pool.

       show prober-pool

       Displays statistics for all prober pools.

       list prober-pool my_pool

       Displays settings of prober pool my_pool.

OPTIONS
       app-service
	    Specifies the name of the application service to which this prober
	    pool belongs. The default value is none. Note: If the strict-
	    updates option is enabled on the application service that owns the
	    object, you cannot modify or delete this prober pool. Only the
	    application service can modify or delete this prober pool.

       description
	    User defined description.

       glob Displays the items that match the glob expression. See help glob
	    for a description of glob expression syntax.

       load-balancing-mode
	    Specifies the load balancing mode that the system uses to select
	    members of this pool. The default value is global-availability.

	    The options are:

	    global-availability
		 Specifies that the Global Traffic Manager selects the first
		 available pool member in the order in which they are listed.

	    round-robin
		 Specifies that the Global Traffic Manager selects members
		 using a circular, sequential pattern among available pool
		 members.

       members
	    Specifies the BIG-IP server names of the pool members. The default
	    value is none.

	    You can also use the following options with prober pool members:

	    app-service
		 Specifies the name of the application service to which this
		 prober pool member belongs. The default value is none. Note:
		 If the strict-updates option is enabled on the application
		 service that owns the object, you cannot modify or delete
		 this prober pool member. Only the application service can
		 modify or delete this prober pool member.

	    description
		 User defined description.

	    [enabled | disabled]
		 Specifies whether this pool member is available to issue
		 probes. The default value is enabled.

	    order
		 Specifies the order number of the pool member. The system
		 uses this number with load balancing methods that involve
		 prioritizing pool members by listed order.

       name Specifies a unique name for the component. This option is required
	    for the commands create, delete, and modify.

       regex
	    Displays the items that match the regular expression. The regular
	    expression must be preceded by an at sign (@[regular expression])
	    to indicate that the identifier is a regular expression. See help
	    regex for a description of regular expression syntax.
