SUMMARY

We are running an Ansible task to change priority_group of pool members. In the task, we are keeping all pool member setting same as they currently are on the F5 except the priority_group.

However, when running the task one of the return value is always "state: disabled".

Although the task does not actually disable the pool member, it makes me worried if something is wrong.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

Ansible Task:

- name: F5 Manage Pool Members | Set pool member state
  f5networks.f5_modules.bigip_pool_member:
    provider: "{{ f5_provider }}"
    pool: "{{ f5_pool_name }}"
    name: "{{ node_name }}"
    address: "{{ node_IP }}"
    port: "{{ node_port }}"
    state: "present"
    priority_group: "1"    ### this the only parameter we want to change
  register: f5_pool_member_state
  retries: 2
  delay: 1
  until: f5_pool_member_state is not failed

The output:

{
  "state": "disabled",
  "monitors": [],
  "changed": false,
  "invocation": {
    "module_args": {
      "provider": {
        "server": "10.50.10.20",
        "validate_certs": false,
        "user": "f5_user",
        "password": "VALUE_SPECIFIED_IN_NO_LOG_PARAMETER",
        "server_port": 443,
        "transport": "rest",
        "timeout": null,
        "no_f5_teem": false,
        "auth_provider": null
      },
      "pool": "test_pool",
      "name": "test_0",
      "address": "10.52.20.12",
      "port": 1234
      "priority_group": 1,
      "replace_all_with": false,
      "partition": "Common",
      "state": "present",
      "reuse_nodes": true,
      "aggregate": null,
      "fqdn": null,
      "connection_limit": null,
      "description": null,
      "rate_limit": null,
      "ratio": null,
      "preserve_node": null,
      "fqdn_auto_populate": null,
      "availability_requirements": null,
      "monitors": null,
      "ip_encapsulation": null
    }
  },
  "_ansible_no_log": null,
  "attempts": 1
}

EXPECTED RESULTS

The task should not return "state": "disabled"

In our task we either omit the "state" parameter or set it to "present". In both the cases we are getting "state: disabled"

ACTUAL RESULTS

{
  "state": "disabled",
  "monitors": [],
  "changed": false,
  "invocation": {
    "module_args": {
      "provider": {

        "transport": "rest",
        "timeout": null,
        "no_f5_teem": false,
        "auth_provider": null
      },
