AltostratusiRule to use specific member (or node)?
I am trying to put together an iRule that will use a specific node (or member) when the URL contains a specific string. However, I am unable to find much on how to pick a node (or member).
- The "pool" command may be used to specify a pool member:
You might want to use the "LB::status" command (avail as of v9.2) to validate the availablity of the node first:pool myPool member 192.168.1.1 80
poolLB::status pool myPool member 192.168.1.1 80

/deb - You may want to try this as well:
It is from this SOL article

As an alternative to the pool command, you can also write an iRule that directs traffic to a specific server. To do this, you use the host command. Figure 15.4 shows an example of this command.
when HTTP_REQUEST {
if {[HTTP::uri] starts_with "/foo/" } {
host 10.0.0.20 80
Thanks, Jason.
