Hi,

Assuming that you using 

$uri
in 
if
and then use 
$old_uri
inside this will not work, so I suggest something like that:

if ( [set new_uri [class match -value [HTTP::uri] eq DATAGROUP]] ne ""} {
  HTTP::uri "$new_uri"
  pool $XYZ
}

It is assuming that your DG is set like that: old_uri := new_uri

  • old_uri - key name you use to match with DG
  • new_uri - new URI that should be set if there is match on old_uri
