With out a direct pool with the monitor the Virtual will show up as unknown. With a iRule picking a pool it would not do much good showing the Virtual up as you is the pool you are going to send the customer up up.

 

You could write a EAV that looks at the pools the iRule could send the traffic too and as long as they are all up the EAV would return up. If one pool the iRule could pick is down then the VIP is down.
