Hi, Using "persist uie 1" iRule is not recommended, since under certain conditions when a chosen pool member/node goes down it may lead to inconsistent persistence entries between TMMs (i.e. different TMMs may end up with persistence entries to different nodes).

 

If you need to persist to single pool member/node, use destination address persistence profile.
