Hey Glenn,

 

 

This can definitely be done. There are some neat examples in the LB::reselect page ( http://devcentral.f5.com/wiki/default.aspx/iRules/LB__reselect.html ) even. Depending on your version you can even do some nifty in-line monitoring with the LB::down and LB::up commands ( http://devcentral.f5.com/wiki/default.aspx/iRules/LB__down.html - http://devcentral.f5.com/wiki/default.aspx/iRules/LB__up.html ).

 

 

Hope this helps a bit.
