Hi,

you can try to swap both cases. Try to match dev.mysite.com before admindev.mysite.com. This would avoid to match admindev.mysite.com when calling dev.mysite.com

I dont know if a switch is accepting regex as criteria, but with an if you can use the following:

when HTTP_REQUEST {
    if { [string tolower [HTTP::host]] matches_regex "^admindev.mysite.com" } {
         pool number1
    }
   if { [string tolower [HTTP::host]] matches_regex "^dev.mysite.com" } {
         pool number2
    }

Regards
