Hi mihaic,

in case you want to consolidate the whole thing into a single iRule the "switch" command will be helpful: 
when HTTP_REQUEST {
    switch -glob [string tolower [HTTP::path]] {
    "/path01*" { pool pool_app_01 }
    "/path02*" { pool pool_app_02 }
    "/path03*" { pool pool_app_03 }
    default    { pool pool_default }
    }
}

This approach is faster than testing through a long list of if/elseif/elseif/.../else conditions.

Thanks, Stephan
