irule to track client - vip - server connection

I am using a fastl4 profile on a VIP. There are several pool members behind this VIP. I suspect some of the pool members are not accepting connections even though they show up. Is it possible to track the connections from (client)<--->(VIP)<--->(server selected from pool) and log them to see which ones failed and which ones succeeded? This is a fastl4 VIP, so client will get connected to the VIP only if server side connection succeeds.

    See if LB_FAILED event helps to log the failed request.
