Currently, I don't believe we support RMI natively. From what I understand, the problem is similar to CORBA/IIOP and DCOM in that the target address is embedded in the binary payload.
With iRules, you do have the ability to dig into the payload and extract and replace values. Currently I don't know of any iRules written to do so for RMI. If you get one though, I'd love to see it.
In the future, you might want to post iRules specific questions to the iRules forum. I'm not sure how iControl plays in here.
