NimbostratusUnable to redirect to a different pool
Env : Big IP 9.4
I have configured the Below iRule and added it to Virtual Server
when LB_SELECTED {
if {([LB::server port] == 9931)}{
pool APILink_A
log local0. "Port 9931 Identified"
} elseif {([LB::server port] == 9933)} {
pool APILink_B
log local0. "Port 9933 Identified"
}
}
I am able to get the correct log based on the status of the port condition. but the F5 does not direct the traffic to the specified pool .
eg
When [LB::server port] == 9931 condition is satisfied, Pool APILink_A is not selected. But "Port 9931 Identified" is logged.
Any help you be appreciated.

If you're using LB::server port, hasn't your traffic already hit a specific pool and the load balancing decision already been made?
If you read the wiki on "pool," you'll notice the event isn't valid in LB_SELECTED even though it doesn't throw an error:

Can you better explain what you're trying to accomplish here? It sounds like you have a VS and you want to send traffic to two different pools but I'm unsure of what you're trying to base that decision on.
