CirrusNeed help redirecting hundreds of host:uris to differentHOST:differentURI using datagroup and irule
Hi All. I am using a BIG IP LTM v15.1.0.4 We have a file of 300 redirects that need to be handled by the F5 for one specific VIP. Its basically ONEHOST:ONEURI to ANOTHERHOST:ANOTHERURI. I have ...
I dont see any syntax issue. But I see problem in your data group.
In my datagroup, I tried "https://mycompany.com/linkA" := "https://anothercompany.com/newlink". I tried with and without the "https://", but cant seem to get a matchI see you have put "https://mycompany.com/linkA", where the uri linkA is having A as caps.
So the Irule is converting everything to small case & when it does, it looks for record ""https://mycompany.com/linka" but it can't find one. So it wont redirect.
If you are doing string to lower in your irule, make sure you add your datagroup records in smaller case too.
This is a common mistake to ignore. I've done multiple times.
Please keep us posted & mark the thread as closed if it answers.

CirrusHi Jalkumar,
One more related question.
How can I check the datagroup file (in the F5 filesystem) after it is successfully imported from an External file to the F5 successfully?

MVPYea you can goto /config/filestore/files_d/Common_d/data_group_d path and check there.
The GUI is pretty straight, System > File Management > Data Group File List.
Please mark the thread as solution provided.
