CirrostratusHi Naman,
Is all (or even most) of the site content cacheable? If not, I'm not sure there is much use in trying to serve the cached content if the dynamic content can't be served.
That said, if you set a very long expire time in the HTTP profile you could handle the expiration in an iRule using CACHE::age and CACHE::expire (Click here). If the pool is up, you could expire the content using the same time expiry you have set in the profile now. If the pool is down, you could not expire the cache content.
