Help with APM irule to append URI and URL to call to kill individual sessions

Hi I'm trying to figure out the best way to get this to work.  I need to take the incoming http request https://application.mydomain.com and append a URI.  Part of it is static URL/static/static/stat...

What is the URL the final application is expecting?

is it www.test.com = apm vip

forward session variables and continue request to www.test.com on vip 2 or is it expecting another url all together?

The openshift container is expecting one of 3.  Either the oringal URL, the IP or the openshift proxy URL.  We just obviously don't want to expose the IP or the proxy.  So sending it through with the original URL with the added URI would be fine.  It just seemed like redirecting to the original would send it back through the entire process hitting the VIP the DNS resolves to with the access policy attached.

    To avoid loop, may want to use ‘MRHSession and LastMRH_Session’ cookies in your irule while sending it through with the original URL with added URI. And use ‘STREAM::disable’ then for return traffic ‘STREAM::enable’

    So when it comes with the session ID inside the query parameters, disable the Access.
