CirrostratusHi Jeff,
You can use a default pool on a VIP with ASM. You can ensure that requests will never be sent directly to the pool by adding at least one HTTP class with no filters. This "catch all" class should be included last in the list of classes so it will have the lowest precedence. This approach would only allow you to mark the VIP up based on the state of a single pool.
If you didn't want to take this approach, I think you'd need to use iControl to mark the VIP down based on the state of multiple pools. I don't think there is any method for affecting the status of the VIP based on the status of one or more pools from a rule. You might consider contacting support to request this functionality be added if you're interested in it.
