I made a mistake and change the Data Group List name to have a dash in it. When I looked at the log I saw that the rule stopped parsing at the dash. The reason I did this is because I'm in the habit of using dashes in my pool names and didn't even think about it.

One last question, is the reference guide "Configuration Guide for Local Traffic Management.pdf" the best source of information on iRules that is out there?
