Different pool, but need to pass the query string along

So you can remove this section of the above example then:

 
    Rewrite URI to /search/virtualsearch?q= with the original   
      value for the q parameter preserved  
   HTTP::uri "/search/virtualsearch?q=[URI::query [HTTP::uri] q]  
    
    Or...  
  
 

The remaining parts should work as you've described. If you run into any issues, try adding logging to the iRule and check the /var/log/ltm output to help debug them.
