newbie question re 'pool' command

I'm trying to use the following snippet in an irule when HTTP_RESPONSE_DATA { pool tp_web_svrs_80 member 10.10.10.39 80 HTTP::retry $original_request } but the request is being sent ...

What I think is happening is the http::retry is causing a new LB choice to be made. The selection of the pool is happening before the HTTP::retry, so when it run it goes to the end of the iRule and then falls through to the default pool.

 

 

What you will have to do is set the pool in a variable the to the pool selection in LB::selected, and that should fix your problem like in the following example.
