Fallback: which VS failed?

Since we were originally a Cisco shop, have a "sorry server" for all failed applications. In the Cisco environment, you still appear to be at the hostname you intended, so it's easy for the sorry page to be app-specific.

 

 

Since the F5 fallback is a redirect, how can I reproduce that app-specificity? I'd like to do it in a generic way from my parent profile, like changing the fallback host to } or ] or some such dynamic replacement, rather than tweaking the fallback host for every VS.

 

 

Anybody done anything like that? Some other method I'm overlooking?

 

 

Thanks - Al
