RE: Tomcat plans for per-webapp session replication

2008-02-26 Thread Andrew R Feller
My apologies; let me clarify:

Are there plans for session replication such that configuring server.xml
is unnecessary?  So rather than configuring it at the server level and
simply marking a webapp as distributable, you could configure session
replication in a webapp's META-INF or WEB-INF.

Thanks,

Not sure what you mean by this: session replication is local to webapps.

After configuring the cluster element in server.xml, you need to 
activate replication for each webapp with a distributable element in 
web.xml and only session changes for those webapps with distributable 
set get replicated. On the receiving end the replication messages are 
automatically dispatched to the same webapp.

Maybe I din't understand your question?

Rainer

 We currently have several servers configured for session replication
 because of a single application.  Not only do we not want session
values
 from other applications on the machines to be replicated as it is
 unnecessary, we wanted a way to store that configuration with a
webapp's
 META-INF.

You need to configure the cluster somewhere, and you can't do that in
web.xml. Any cluster configuration is outside of the Servlet Spec, so
it's gotta go somewhere besides web.xml. In Tomcat, that place is in
server.xml.

Re: Tomcat plans for per-webapp session replication

2008-02-25 Thread Filip Hanik - Dev Lists

this has been done since the beginning of session replication.
if your webapp has distributable/ in web.xml sessions will be replicated.
if the element is missing, session data will not be replicated even if 
the server is configured for clustering
