Thanks. I am trying to get them to migrate. It seems that part of there bottleneck could be the MAX clients on HTTPD. They get high volumes at times and have like 1800-3000 active sessions. Any other input would be great like tuning tomcat to workers and the best strategy to setup a tomcat/httpd env.
