Hello,

 

 

This issue isn't related to iRules. You can contact F5 Support for product related questions.

 

 

In general though, there shouldn't be an issue if you redefine the nodes in a pool. If you're using monitors to check the state of the nodes in the pool, they may need to be updated. If the nodes weren't answering the monitors during the changeover, the BIG-IP might have still marked them down until a monitor successfully polled the nodes.

 

 

Support should be able to provide you with more detail though.
