Trying to redirec to secondary pool with a maint page but image is not displaying

Hello,

 

I'm trying to send clients to a second pool/ maintenance page in the event there are no pool members available in the default pool. I was able validate this but I need to do a rewrite of the uri to the root and when I have this configured the background .jpg does not appear, only the index.html. With out the HTTP:: uri "/" ,things do work, but I need to rewrite in the event someone tries to go to a specific uri it automatically sends user to root with the maintenance page. Here is the simple i rule I currently have:'

 

 

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {

 

if default members of pool is less than 1 if {[active_members baremonitor1 ] < 1 } {

 

if {[HTTP::path] eq "/*"} {

 

then redirect to pool istoreMaintenance page

 

HTTP::uri "/"

 

use pool istoreMaintenance

 

}

 

}

 

 

any ideas would be appreciated.

 

 

Louie

    can you try something like this? 

    [root@ve1023:Active] config  b virtual bar list
virtual bar {
   snat automap
   pool fake
   destination 172.28.19.79:80
   ip protocol 6
   rules myrule
   profiles {
      http {}
      tcp {}
   }
}
[root@ve1023:Active] config  b pool fake list
pool fake {
   monitor all fake
   members {
      200.200.200.101:9999 {}
      200.200.200.123:80 {}
   }
}
[root@ve1023:Active] config  b pool fake|grep -i pool\ member
+-> POOL MEMBER fake/200.200.200.101:9999   inactive,down
+-> POOL MEMBER fake/200.200.200.123:80   inactive,down

[root@ve1023:Active] config  b rule myrule list
rule myrule {
   when HTTP_REQUEST {
        if {[string tolower [HTTP::uri]] starts_with "/maint/"}{
                scan [HTTP::uri] {/maint%s} new_uri
                HTTP::uri $new_uri
                pool maint_pool
                return
        }

        if {[active_members [LB::server pool]] < 1}{
                HTTP::redirect "http://[HTTP::host]/maint/"
        }
}
}
[root@ve1023:Active] config  b pool maint_pool list
pool maint_pool {
   members 74.125.235.51:80 {}
}

[root@ve1023:Active] config  ssldump -Aed -nni 0.0 port 80
