Your impression is correct. Session variables are specific to a single
physical server, and will not persist across servers within a cluster.
However, you can use session variables within a clustered application, as
long as the cluster is using session-aware load balancing, which directs a
user's initial request to a server, and all subsequent requests from that
user to the same server.
