I'm not sure what is going on, but I think you have made some assumptions in your iRule that may not valid.

 

 

On the 1st HTTP_REQUEST there should be NO cookie asv, so everything should end up getting assigned to pool "foo" to start.

 

The 1st response from the server should set the cookie asv.

 

 

So by the time the cookie is set, the pool has been assigned and things could be getting messed up from there.
