Hi,

I am trying to set up JK 1.2 with Apache 1.3 and Tomcat 4.1.12.
All seems to work fine, but I am a bit confused about the "local worker"
configuration option:

According to the documentation at
http://www/tomcat-docs/jk2/jk/workershowto.html (section "Advanced lb
Worker properties") an incomming request is routed to the first local
worker.

Well, as the documentation is not quite clear to me, I have some
questions:

- Is the "local worker" just a switch to tell the load balancer
  "use this node"?

- If this is true and I want to shut down a node, can I just set the
  "local worker" flag of that node to 0, reload the Apache
  configuration, wait until the last session
  on that node has expired and shut it down?

- If there is no node marked as "local worker" (which seems to be the
  default), there is no session information stored. The log of JK 1.2
  says that every request gets its own session cookie set which means
  there are no sessions stored.
  Is that the behaviour that it should be?

Thank You,

Hans
