Joe,
Yeah, I figured that out about the configuration file. I'll give the logging a try tonight. Unfortunatley I can't test during the day. As for the failing part, I'm not quite sure. I am new to BigIP and not a programmer. I can describe what happens though. Persistance works fine for client based http requests with this rule -->
when HTTP_REQUEST {
if { [HTTP::cookie exists "server"] } {
use pool Staging
}
else {
use pool Staging
}
}
Very basic, but it works for http and https. The problem comes in when another website of ours uses our Virtual Server for authentication. With the above rule, persistence doesn't work. It just uses round robin. When I tried the rules about, either it didn't make a difference, or I got the page cannot be displayed message every time.
Also, besides the LTM config manual, is there a list of all the commands and options and such that work with iRules? Thanks a million.
Dave
