hi Prohead, this is by design. Since all the HTTP traffic is coming to one VIP, the combined persistence iRule makes a pool selection based on the HTTP path of the request. With RPC/MAPI, we use separate virtual servers (at the same IP address but different port) so we can simply assign a default pool for those VIPs.
