direct similar uris to their own pools via datagroup

Hi -     I have an iRule that was working just fine until I made a recent addition. The rule finds the uri and directs traffic to a pool based on the information contained in a datagroup:   ...

Thanks for the reply Chris.

 

 

I tried using 'equals' but the problem then became that anything after the uri wouldn't be matched and therefore wouldn't get directed to the pool.

 

 

For example:

 

 

http://mysite.com/clienta

 

http://mysite.com/clientaweb

 

http://mysite.com/clientaadmin

 

 

Should all go to the same pool.

 

 

http://mysite.com/clienta1

 

http://mysite.com/clienta1web

 

http://mysite.com/clienta1admin

 

 

Should go to a different pool.

 

 

Good reason to use a different naming convention :-P I'm sure someone will have a good method to do this that allows you to look at the 6th character in the string and evaluate it...another option would be to put a1 higher in the datagroup list.
