Since you are testing the entire location header for server01, server02, or server03, why the need for a string map? Wouldn't the following do the same thing? Oh, and you might want to change the string comparison for the HTTP::status compare to a numeric equals as that will perform faster. 

when HTTP_RESPONSE { 
   if { [HTTP::status] == 302 } { 
     switch [string tolower [HTTP::header Location]] { 
       "server01" - 
       "server02" - 
       "server03" { 
         HTTP::header replace Location "www.site.com" 
       } 
     } 
   } 
 }
