[Glass] [a bit offtopic] Redirect special seaside request to a different VM

[Paul DeBruicker]

I answered the folowing on the website:

@hellvinz is right. I can't comment so I'm making another answer.

location / {
   if($myArg = "otherPool") {
       rewrite  ^/(.*)$ /otherUpstream/$1 last;
     } 
   try_files $uri pool1;
}

location /otherUpstream {
     proxy_pass http://@pool2;
}
I think you'll have to change $myArg to the name of the query parameter
you're testing for and otherPool to whatever you set it to. Plus the rewrite
is untested, so I may have that wrong too but you get the idea.
