Mark - I took a look at the Manager How To Guide as seen here - https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-8.0-doc/manager-howto.html#Expire_Sessions
It mentions that it's possible to expire sessions for each individual app using a command similar to - curl -X GET http://username:password@localhost:8080/manager/text/expire?path=/examples&idle=0 Do you know if a wildcard can be used for the app name?

Fairly recent and no known issues. I'll add session expiration is testing as part of the 'unit' tests we run after every commit and I don't ever remember it failing. The same tests are also run before every release and must pass on multiple platforms before the release is started. > The usual causes are: > - something unexpected accessing the session > - the background processing thread is crashed / busy doing something > else > > Is there a command line mechanism to gracefully terminate sessions? No, but you can use the Manager app to view session contents and expire the sessions.
