Hello,

I think you should care about exception if your variable don't have a valid virtual server name.

Once name exists, I can't see it throwing exceptions due to virtual server availability state.

You are trying to create a rule to only send traffic when destination virtual server is available? Is it?

 

Regards

Thanks for your reply , yes intention was to select the virtual server only when it is available.

So before selecting the virtual server checking the status of the virtual server associated default pool i.e. if active member is there make sense ? The pool is having only one virtual server.
