Hi vallesm77,

 

 

Check this related thread for some options to parse the virtual name from the path:

You might also consider updating your iRule to use the full virtual name as the data group should have a folder as well.

 

 

Also, if you're running on a CMP capable platform you should try to avoid using global variables like "$::defaultValue". You can set $static::defaultValue in RULE_INIT instead:
