@pkodzis, can you please help me with

1. the complete ansible task you are using
2. output of the ansible playbook with -vvv option

[pkodzis]

@sumanth-lingappa , this is example task that gives this behavior:

    - name: setup lbmonitor
      delegate_to: localhost
      netscaler.adc.lbmonitor:
        nsip: "{{ provider.nsip }}"
        nitro_auth_token: "{{ provider.nitro_auth_token | default(omit) }}"
        nitro_protocol: "{{ provider.nitro_protocol | default(omit) }}"
        validate_certs: "{{ provider.validate_certs | default(omit) }}"
        monitorname: test-monitor-1
        interval: 60
        state: present
        type: HTTP
        deviation: 0

deploy_test-1.log
deploy_test-2.log
deploy_test-3.log

attachgin logs. log #1 creates the monitor. logs #2 and #3 are from re-deploy of the same task, so ansible should make no changes.

this works as expected now. thank you so much! :)
