iRule to send multipart file upload to a different pool

Hi Cathy

Thanks for your response.

The upload is being handled by an Ajax component (PrimeFaces).

Using Fiddler on the client side I can see the individual HTTP POSTs which contains the following headers

• Connection: Keep-Alive
• Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate
• X-Requested-With: XMLHttpRequest
• Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="a_big_file.zip"
• Content-Length: 10001628
• Content-Range: bytes 0-9999999/1462538240
• Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=---------------------------7e11932a13e0402

Here are the entries from /var/log/ltm for the first 4 HTTP POSTs that I see in Fiddler. You can see the first request/chunk has the pool changed, but the subsequent ones use the default pool. I only see an a single HTTP_REQUEST event, which is where the logic to select pools currently is.
