Hello, I currently have an apache server running as a load-balancer between multiple tomcat machines. My problem is this: I would like to be able to update the tomcat machines without bringing down the whole system and disrupting users. Ideally, a machine would be flagged to stop servicing new requests, but continue serving old sessions until they expired. From the documentation, It looks like using a status worker to set the activation to disabled is supposed to do something like this. However when I disabled a node, it stops serving all requests. Am I wrong about how this is supposed to work? One thought is that I am using the Tomcats to manage sessions and Apache doesn't know enough about them to know if they are expired or not? Do I need to enable some sort of session management on the apache side? It seems to me that if apache is able to route requests correctly, it should know something of the sessions. I apologize for the long post, but wanted to be complete. I can post workers.properties, etc. if needed. Any help would be greatly appreciated Thank You! --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For additional commands, e-mail: users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
