Oct 20, 2009Clone Pool Irule
Hi,
We would like to intercept/clone all HTTP REQUESTs and HTTP RESPONSEs for certain Virtual Server / Pool. We looked at clone pool feature but the documentation does not provide enough information on how to set it up and if the server response will be cloned to the clone pool. What are the best ways to do it with F5 BigIP (9.4.7) using IRules
Thanks

I'm not sure whether the responses will be sent to the clone pool, but per the solution below I think they will be: - brad_11480

What isn't clear when using an irule to set the clone pool conditionally is if it is setting the request side or the response side cloning. There only seems to be one iRule command to set cloning and it doesn't describe which it does or if it does both, or if it is based on the event where it appears. - brad_11480

My belief is that, as you suggest, it's based on the context of the Event but I've never tested it. - nitass

Interesting, thanks. - Rudi_95802

Anyone have an answer to the OP? I'm being asked to send all the traffic (requests and responses) for a VIP to a collector probe.

For that, you can just create a pool that has the collector probe in it, then assign a clone pool to the virtual server object.

Thank you so much James. Hope it works!
