I have been doing a lot of research on this and i still can't get this working.
Currently i have this iRule which has been mentioned in numerous threads on this forum.
when HTTP_REQUEST {
HTTP::redirect http://[HTTP::host][HTTP::uri]
}
However i'm still not getting anywhere.
Do i need a client SSL profile for the HTTPS VIP?
Do i need to assign a pool to the HTTPS VIP
Here are some of the threads i have seen on this same topic:

All of them use a similar iRule to the one i have above. However nothing really talks about if a pool is required or an SSL client.
I have tried it with both and am getting nowhere!
Update: SO looks like you do need a client SSL cert. I don't have one for this site but just assigned another one and it worked! There was a certificate error, but it worked none the less
