Hi, I think is better redirect the client to the new host name, but that does not solve the certificate error on the first access to the old host.

Change the content header in the http request will only take effect to the server side. So, why do you not create a VS:80 and also redirects to? I think most people first goes to http instead of https. 
 for both HTTP and HTTPS
when HTTP_REQUEST {
    if { [HTTP::host] ne "xyz.mycompany.com" } { 
        HTTP::redirect "https://xyz.mycompany.com[HTTP::uri]" 
    } 
}

Hope it helps.
