Hi I got a Tomcat cluster set up, which is working for most applications. However, since I am experiencing some problems (See another thread of mine "Deltamanager + Session beans: Do they like eachother?"), I reread the Tomcat clustering documentation.
The following are a few things that are not clear to me, I would definitely appreciate it if someone could answer my doubts :) Note: I'm using Tomcat 5.5.27 According to http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/cluster-howto.html : 1. "Make sure that jvmRoute attribute is set at your Engine <Engine name="Catalina" jvmRoute="node01" >" I thought this was only necessary if I wanted to have session affinity. I just want my sessions to be replicated, I don't want to have session affinity. 2. "Make sure that your loadbalancer is configured for sticky session mode" Again, I thought this was not necessary if session affinity was not required. 3. From the "O'reilly: Tomcat The definitive guide" book: "You must have both the distributable="true" attribute set on the webapp’s Context and the <distributable/> element in the webapp’s web.xml for session clustering to work." The Tomcat website states: "Make sure your web.xml has the <distributable/> element or set at your <Context distributable="true" />" Note the -OR-, it does not say -AND-. Until now I only specified this tag in web.xml, which seemed to work just fine. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
