Hi Shay,

You can use active active_members $pool_name to get a count of the active members: 

 
 when HTTP_REQUEST { 
  
     Check if there are more than x members marked up in the default pool 
    if {[active members [LB::server pool]] < 3}{ 
  
       HTTP::respond 302 "Location" "http://redirected.example.com/busy" \ 
 "Connection" "Close" \ 
 "Cache-Control" "no-cache" \ 
 "Pragma" "no-cache" 
    } 
 }

LB::server (Click here)
