What is the reasoning for the server sharing a loopback IP with the VIP? Are you doing layer 2 n-path and bypassing the F5 for the return traffic? And if so, why? Make the traffic flow symmetrical if possible. Also, if you must do n-path, you must disable the translate-address flag in your VIP. If you're not doing n-path - that loopback doesn't belong.
