Hi,

 

 

an iRule is not able to check by itself some files on a webserver and cannot do it to on an interval basis.

 

 

Maybe you can create some HTTP monitor to check for the content of this file and depending on the result of the content you can turn off/on the webserver. That seems to be the closest to what you would like to achieve
