Nimbostratusload balance using http methods
We have 1 read/write node and two Read-only nodes, so we want all the Get http requests to be distributed equally in them and all other requests like POST, Patch, Delete to be forwarded to read/write...
Hi Ahmed,
Can you try this iRule?
when HTTP_REQUEST {
if { [HTTP::method] ne "GET" } {
node node1ip port
}
# GET requests are forwarded to the default pool. No need to use else statement.
}

Kindly when i try to deploy iRule it shown me an error
You must add } (closing brace) to row 5.
With this irule, ALL methods will forwarded to node1, only GET requests will forwarded to node2 and node3.
