NimbostratusHttp header based persistence
Hello,
I have the following setup to enable persistence on incoming http requests.
when HTTP_REQUEST { persist hash [HTTP::header "Y-ABC-UserID"] }
The goals is to to have a user who's user id is appended as such
"Y-ABC-UserID:"
always persist to the node on which their connection orignally establishes based on the rules of the pool. It is not working correctly and the users session bounces back and forth across the pool.
Any one with any thoughts? all suggestions are great appreciated
Cheers

- You must also have a persistence profile specified in the virtual server.
Michael_YatesHi MK,
Perhaps you should try using "persist uie" instead of persist hash.
Something like:when HTTP_REQUEST { if { [HTTP::header exists "Y-ABC-UserID"] } { persist uie [HTTP::header "Y-ABC-UserID"] } }
iRules: "persist" v. "persist add"

Hope this helps.- nitass

just curious who generates Y-ABC-UserID header. is it client?
if so, does it send the header on every request?
can you post the full irule?
