Session variables mean sticky sessions... Use the Client scope and stick
the client data into a DB. One think though, only simple variables are
allowed in the client scope.. not structs or arrays etc... The benefit
is that if a server goes down, the 'session' data is held in a db
accessible to all servers and therefore, the user is unaware that a
server has died because they aren't kicked out.


I know on our 4 machine load balanced cluster, we can restart a server
in the middle of a peak period with hardly any user issues at all.


On your second point, most cluster sw/hw takes care of itself. I know
I'm no longer bothered if a server restarts itself as long as it does
restart.... :)
