dash in URI breaking pool selection?

As you're explicitly defining a pool for all cases in the iRule, I don't think you actually need to use a OneConnect profile. See this post for more info/test examples:

It's still useful to add a OneConnect profile though to allow for more efficient reuse of serverside connections. If you're not using SNAT you can add a custom OneConnect profile with a 255.255.255.255 source mask. This allows LTM to reuse serverside connections for the same source IP address. If you are using SNAT then you can use a OC profile with a /0 mask for even more efficient pooling of serverside connections.

 

 

This wiki page has some good info on using OneConnect:

And SOL7208 has additional info:

I'm not sure whether there is a valid case where you'd want to enable OneConnect transformations on an HTTP profile while not using a OneConnect profile. I guess the rewriting of the Connection: close would allow more requests to be sent on the same TCP connection without the server trying to close the connection.
