            "monitors": [{
              "use": "smtp_monitor"
            }],
 
            "members": [{
              "servicePort": 25,
              "shareNodes": false,
              "serverAddresses": [

                            "use": "smtp_monitor"
                        }
                    ],
                    "members": [
                        {
                            "servicePort": 25,
                            "shareNodes": false,
                            "serverAddresses": [
                                "10.1.10.5"
                            ],
                            "hostname": "foobar"
                        }
                    ]
                },
                "smtp_monitor": {
                    "class": "Monitor",
                    "monitorType": "smtp",
                    "interval": 30,
                    "timeout": 91,
                    "domain": "F5"

            "archiveTimestamp": "2023-03-28T14:36:35.957Z"
        }
    }
}

But LTM does not show node/pool member hostnames: ltm node /Tenant_Acme/10.1.10.5 { address 10.1.10.5 } ltm pool /Tenant_Acme/acme_smtp_app/acme_smtp_pool { members { /Tenant_Acme/10.1.10.5:25 { address 10.1.10.5 metadata { source { value declaration } } } } min-active-members 1 monitor min 1 of { /Tenant_Acme/acme_smtp_app/smtp_monitor } }

Expected Behavior

Pool member/node hostname should be populated.

Actual Behavior

Pool member/node hostname is not populated.
