Hi kimhenriksen , 
 > If I understand you well , using Reverse option in your environment should not be fit , as reverse marks the pool member down if it matches with "the correct Receive string/content" , Reverse option is very useful for instance if you want to match with " ERROR 404 " so when the web page reurned " Error 404 " monitor marks pool member down.
