NimbostratusWhat does your datagroup look like? You could add a logging line into your iRule to see what the HTTP::host value is and compare with your datagroup value.

log local0. "HTTP Host is: [HTTP::host]"
Instead of HTTP::host in the you might use URI::host command with HTTP::host as parameter. URI::host does not return the protocol portion of the Host header. Note that URI::host requires a a parameter string from where it parses the host portin. Haven't tested it, though..see iRule wiki on those.
