No problem. I've got quite a collection of iRules on my system that I've built over the years and while I haven't upgraded directly from 9.2.3 to 9.4 (I've done iterum builds), the contents of the iRules are not modified as part of the upgrade process as they are backward compatible (well 99.99%, there's always the odd corner case of a method that is undocumented and then removed from future versions).

 

 

If you are just doing basic functionality and your iRule is working on 9.2.3, then upgrading to 9.4 shouldn't cause any issues with iRule incompatibility.

 

 

In the furture, if you have any specific concerns, post away and we'll have a look at them for you.
