If you are referencing the "Connection Settings" in the mid tier
config, yes we have tried that (and it remains configured), but it did not
help and the issue persists.

The "Connection Lifespan" is set to 60 minutes and the "Connection Timeout"
is 0 (which is infinite, correct?). Tomcat and Netscaler both are
configured for 65 minute sessions.

Question to all -- if the "Connection Settings" in the mid tier are
configured, should we remove any session persistence settings form the
Netscaler?

Thanks,
