    Hi JDL, if you want to protect Web Apps with APM, you need to colocate it with the SharePoint virtual server and make sure the Web Apps FQDN is included in the list when you deploy the iApp (that will add it to the multi-domains list in the APM profile). If you are doing a separate virtual server, it shouldn't have an APM policy assigned.

Hi JDL, I am having this issue currently - 1 VS for SP and OWA 2013 which uses the iRule to assign the appropriate pool. With APM on, OWA fails unless I do an ACCESS::disable based on either User-Agent or IP. However, I still get the OWA error on the first preview/edit with OWA then every request after that it works. Any ideas? Thanks
