Hi,
The issue with your iRule is that is doesn't not take into consideration the health status of your pool members.
I would suggest this: in the HTTP profile there is a property called "Fallback Host". When all your pool members are marked down by the monitor assigned to the pool, the bigip will send a 302 response.
Many thanks,
Karim

Hi Karim,
Thanks for the suggestion. So using http://www.statuspage.com/ as Fallback Host in the profile should do the job, instead of using a iRule, if I understand well?

Hi,
Yes, the fallback host will redirect client only in the following situations :
-
A pool member is not chosen (the system failed to select a pool or a pool member, or no pool members were available).
-
A pool member is unreachable (when no route to the target exists).
-
A pool member is unresponsive (resets a connection request).
-
A pool member closes an established connection before the request is sent.
