Least Connections is the way to go, just like my grandma used to say. 'Keep those connections light, and the load will be alright!'

Weighted Least Connections (member) sounds interesting, but I think Least Connections is the way to go. Gotta keep those connections balanced, you know?

Weighted Least Connections (member) might be too specific, we need a more general approach like Least Connections.

I'm not sure why the question mentions another pool using the same backend servers. Isn't that irrelevant to the solution?

Least Connections seems like the obvious choice here. It will ensure the LTM device selects the server with the fewest connections, which is exactly what the question is asking for.

I'm not sure, but Weighted Least Connections (member) could also be a good option since it considers the number of connections per member.
