Simple iRule with Sticky?

Hi James,

I assume you want requests for / and /default.aspx to go to the Tech_Web_Pool_80 pool then?

If you have specific exceptions for URIs you want to go to the main pool, you could try something like the example below to have them matched first. Note that I've added logic to parse the path and filename from the Referer header so you can check for / and /default.aspx there.

when HTTP_REQUEST {
 Check the requested URI to see if it is a non-default pool request
switch -glob [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] {
"/sites/technology*" {
 Use the main pool
pool Main_Web_Pool_80
}
"/" -
"/default.aspx*" -
"*/sites/tech*" -
"*/uri2/tech*" -
"*/uri3/tech*" {
pool Tech_Web_Pool_80
}
default {
 No match on the URI, so check the Referer header 
 to see if it is a non-default pool request

 Use URI::path and URI::basename to get the URI from the Referer header
set referer [string tolower [HTTP::header Referer]]
switch -glob "[URI::path $referer][URI::basename $referer]" {
"/sites/technology*" {
 Use the main pool
pool Main_Web_Pool_80
}
"/" -
"/default.aspx*" -
"/sites/tech" -
"*/uri2/tech*" -
"*/uri3/tech*" {
pool Tech_Web_Pool_80
}
default {
 No match on URI or Referer so use the main pool
pool Main_Web_Pool_80
}
}
}
}
}
