NimbostratusURL based redirection using irules is not working
I have problem in my F5 irules the scenario is as follows, appreciate your help in this issue
Http://Dev.abc.com/TEST is my primary URL in this /TEST is the contest root redirected by web server now my requirement is when F5 gets request for a URI "/TEST/Maddy" it has to go to a different pool. I have created rule as follows but it is not redirecting for the "/TEST/Maddy"
when
HTTP_REQUEST {
if
{ ([HTTP::uri] contains "/TEST/maddy")}{
pool web_maddy_pool_port_9001
}
if
{ [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] equals "/" } {
HTTP::redirect "http://dev.abc.com/TEST"
}
else {
pool
Development_TEST_pool_port_7789
}
}
Web_maddy_pool_port_9001 - has IPs of weblogic cluster for Maddy pool
Development_TEST_pool_port_7789
- has IPs of weblogic cluster for default pool
Appreciate your help

Peter_72728The last sentence of your explanation says "it is not redirecting for the "/TEST/Maddy"". Is it possible that the problem is just case sensitivity?
Your iRule code has the following test...
if { ([HTTP::uri] contains "/TEST/maddy")}{
Note the lowercase "m" in the code, but the uppercase "M" in your explanation.
Michael_YatesYou could do something like what I have below.
When doing it this way the item in the switch statement is absolute, so what I have below "/test/maddy/*" contains the wildcard so that this would equal { [HTTP::uri] starts_with "/test/maddy" }.
This should also make it easier to add to in the future.when HTTP_REQUEST { switch -glob [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] { "/" { HTTP::redirect "http://dev.abc.com/test" } "/test/maddy/*" { pool web_maddy_pool_port_9001 } default { pool Development_TEST_pool_port_7789 } } }
BM_27231Thank you
i think we have kind of identified the issue, but session stickiness is making issues. Anybody has though on overwriting and dropping the cookies?
