Help
My company is looking for a consultant or partner that will help us write iRules. Can someone please point us in the right direction.
Thanks
Eric is correct, you should be able to formulate a custom health monitor to do this.
However, there is a way of using iRules with monitoring. You can configure a Passive monitor which can parse the response for a particular error string, for example, and disable a pool member if necessary. This is quicker than a standard health monitor but has to be used in conjunction with a standard health monitor (else the pool member won't be marked up when it comes back online).
See this link: Overview of Passive Health Monitoring
Just my 2cents - might not be required in your case of course.
