Newbie needs help with redirecting a pool

Hello everyone.

 

 

I really need some help with writing an iRule that when one pool's nodes are not available, it will reroute to another pool.

 

 

In other words, if b2b_pool is down, then route traffic to b2b2_pool.

 

 

Any help would be so appreciated.

 

 

Thanks.

    Hello lfuson,

     

     

    You should be able to use priority groups within your pool configuration do accomplish this without using a rule:

     

     

    Specifying priority-based member activation
