    I can't see anything wrong with the logic - here's a idea to move you forward with the Rule though and including some logging;-

    when HTTP_REQUEST {

if { [class match [string tolower [HTTP::host]] equals dg_autoDiscover_tenants] && [HTTP::uri] equals "/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml"} {
    log local0. "Redirecting [HTTP::host][HTTP::uri] to [class match -value [string tolower [HTTP::host]] equals dg_autoDiscover_tenants]"
    HTTP::respond 302 Location [class match -value [string tolower [HTTP::host]] equals dg_autoDiscover_tenants] 
return
}  
}

    So your datagroup dg_autoDiscover_tenants would have Hosts as keys, and URIs ie https://autodiscover.environment2.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml as values. Check for logging output in /var/log/ltm.

Do you know that you can use both DNS A records for autodiscover.domain.com or SRV record for _autodiscover._tcp.domain.com ( or something like that ). This may give you more flexibility as you can assign priorities and weights to the SRV records. Might be worth investigating.
