You don't need persistence, if you are selecting a pool member based on the query string value. I misunderstood your initial request.

I am assuming, you are sending it to port 80 on the pool member and this could work:

when HTTP_REQUEST {
    if { [HTTP::uri] contains "server" } {
    set query_value [URI::query [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] server]
    pool [LB::server pool] [member $query_value 80]
}
}
