Querying the Status Tree of a Load Balancer

Function

This API is used to query the status tree of a load balancer and to show information about all resources associated with the load balancer.

When admin_state_up is set to false and operating_status to OFFLINE for a backend server, DISABLED is returned for operating_status of the backend server in the response of this API.

Calling Method
