An abstract from one of Craig's reply:
They get serialized to a file called SESSIONS.ser in the work directory
for each webapp. NOTE - only session attributes that are Serializable get
the benifit of this.
Yes, they survive a full restart as long as you don't delete the
SESSIONS.ser file.
To remove them:
cd $CATALINA_HOME/work/{servicename}/{hostname}/{context-path}
rm SESSIONS.ser
