Tom, 

Will the repository be a single point of failure then ?

Balancing


Keep in mind that with distributed sessions (coming soon to a tomcat near
you), affinity
is no longer 'required' in order to function. This provides the added
benefit of fail-over.

Affinity is still desirable for performance reasons. However, the if the
Tomcat instance
that created the session is brought down, the user needn't be affected.
Apache
should notice this and route subsequent requests (for the affected sessions)
to another
TC instance in the cluster. The other TC instances will either already have
a copy of
the session or can retrieve it from a 'repository'.

| It'll not work. URL rewriting is the issue - the session id ( i.e. what
| will be sent on the next request ) will end up inside html pages, where
| mod_jk can't 'rewrite' it. And adding a cookie will fail if no cookies
| are available ( again where url rewriting will be used ).
|
| The session id that a servlet sees must have the vmroute in it.
