If no pool members are up, LB_FAILED will be triggered. It can be triggered for other reasons, but perhaps you wish to redirect any time that the traffic cannot be forwarded because of a failure? If so:

when HTTP_REQUEST { if { [HTTP::path] ends_with "/VCS" } { set vcs 1 } else { set vcs 0 } } when LB_FAILED { if { $vcs } { HTTP::redirect "http://www.site.com" } }

The variable
$vcs
must be set in HTTP_REQUEST because the Request Host header is not available in LB_FAILED.
