Sticky SSL with redirect

[jim.brock]

I'm needing some help. I'm trying to set up a rule on a CSS11506 to run sticky SSL and provide a redirect if the services are unavailable. I have the following:

content rule-90

add service appserver1

add service appserver2

add service appserver12

add service appserver22

add service app-redirect

vip address 192.168.253.4

application ssl

protocol tcp

port 90

url "/*"

advanced-balance ssl

sticky-inact-timeout 30

active

If the services go down, the user is not redirected to the redirect service. If I take out the advanced-balance ssl, it works perfectly. The problem seems to be that it is staying stuck to the other services. Is there another way of providing the ssl sticky and get a redirect if the services are down?

Any ideas are appreciated.

this is SSL traffic, so no device except the source and destination can read or modify the content of the traffic.

Thus you can't send a redirect for SSL traffic.

The url commmand is also usesless for the same reason.
