5 years ago This is because the comparison does not take into account bland DNS entries which the API server always return on a get, even if DNS was not configured. A short term workaround is to set DNS servers on the IP pool.
The nsxt_ip_pools module always updates the resource, even when nothing has been changed. The message "ip pool with pool id a7b7d048-87f5-4848-a585-c2ffe618f9df updated." is displayed on every execution.
