Let's try some logging then to verify if the iRule is producing what you want: 


when HTTP_REQUEST {
     log local0. "original URL = [HTTP::host][HTTP::uri]"
     if { [HTTP::uri] starts_with "/abc/"} {
          set newuri [string map {"/abc/" "/def/"} [string tolower [HTTP::uri]]]
          log local0. "new URL = https://NEWhostname.domain.com$newuri"
          HTTP::redirect "https://NEWhostname.domain.com$newuri"
     }
}

Please report back what the logs return.
