We are working on transitioning from Jserv to Tomcat 4.0 (believe it or
not), and there is one problem I haven't found the answer to in the
documentation.

We use apache with a pool of remote java servers.  There is a tool (and
web interface) that allows us to tell mod_jserv not to send new requests
to particular java servers.  We use this so that we can "drain" particular
java servers and release new code on them in a way that affects only a
small number of users.

I have not discovered a tool or web interface that would allow marking
particular workers as "inactive" so that the load balancer:
a) sends requests with a session cookie for an inactive worker to that
worker
b) sends requests no with session cookie to only active workers

I have done some web searches and seen discussions about patches relating
to such a feature, but I haven't found documentation about whether this is
included in Tomcat 4.0 and how to use it.

I would greatly appreciate your help in this.
