Cloned pool isn't working correctly

Hi guys

We are using clone pool sentence using the iRule

when HTTP_REQUEST {
   pool "pro-http-sur"
   if { [HTTP::host] contains "www.bbb.es" } {
       if { ( ([HTTP::method] equals "POST") && ([HTTP::uri] starts_with "/boa/index.jsf" ))
          ||([HTTP::uri] starts_with "/boa/hotelResult.jsf") } {
          clone pool pro-clone-sur
       } 
   } elseif { [HTTP::host] contains "www.extranetccc.es"} {
       pool "pro-http-sur-extranet"
   }
}
`


Our intention is to clone traffic based on the request HTTP-URI and HTTP method as you can see in the iRule. 

The cloned destination interface has been enabled to listen in promiscuous mode but the traffic cloned received does not match with the irule condition. 

For example we have checked that there are requests cloned based on the following uris:   


`/boa/resources/prima.jsf
/boa/resources/img.png
/boa/resources/css.png

In addition some requests are been lost even fulfilling based on the irule condition

any idea?

    The logic is looking good, but would you mind trying this,

    when HTTP_REQUEST {
   if { [HTTP::host] contains "www.bbb.es" } {
       if { ( ([HTTP::method] equals "POST") && ([HTTP::uri] starts_with "/boa/index.jsf" ))
          ||([HTTP::uri] starts_with "/boa/hotelResult.jsf") } {
          pool pro-http-sur
          clone pool pro-clone-sur
          log local0. "Host matched if-if condition - CLONING, HOST: [HTTP::host] has URI : [HTTP::uri] of Method: [HTTP::method]"
       } else {
       pool pro-http-sur
       log local0. "Host matched if-else condition - NO CLONE, HOST: [HTTP::host] has URI : [HTTP::uri] of Method: [HTTP::method]"
       }
   } elseif { [HTTP::host] contains "www.extranetccc.es"} {
       pool pro-http-sur-extranet
       log local0. "Host matched elseif condition - Extranet, NO CLONE, HOST: [HTTP::host] has URI : [HTTP::uri] of Method: [HTTP::method]"
   }

    }
