I should know the answer to this, but I want to make sure that I'm thinking this through correctly.
I have websites running on load balanced web servers (one group running CFMX, one group running CF4.5 (which won't be around much longer - it's being migrated to MX)). I want to move the client variables to a datasource instead of the registry so that we can actually start using them if we want to.
I assume that all web/CF servers should be pointing to the same db for their client variable storage (my plan was to point all MX servers to one db and all 4.5 servers to a second db). This is correct, yes?
If this does happen, is there a risk that two servers will generate the same CFID and CFTOKEN values for two separate users? Should I therefore be checking the "Use UUID for cftoken" setting in the "Settings" section in the CF admin (on the MX servers)? I found the following technote (http://www.macromedia.com/support/coldfusion/ts/documents/tn18133.htm), which I assume takes care of this problem for 4.5 servers.
Any help/advice here is greatly appreciated. I've done some searching on MACR's website and while I've found some documentation on the issue, I haven't found any really clear best practices described.
Thanks,
Evan
