At the first look, you will not need an iRule for that. If I understand your scenario, you want to remove the load-balancing and high-availability for the DB service. As you described your scenario:

 

- App Server 1 communicates to DB1 (always)

 

- App Server 2 comminicates to DB2 (always)

 

Can you specify what should happen if one of the DB servers fails? i.e DB1 comes unavailable, should the traffic from App Server 1 land in the DB2 server or is it not important?
