Sun Java System Access Manager Policy Agent 2.2 Release Notes

Load Balancing Enablement

Starting with this release of web agents, the default agent hostname, port, and protocol settings can be overridden to enable load balancing.

HTTP requests might pass through an SSL off-loader, load balancer, or proxy server before getting to the web agent. In such cases, the protocol (HTTP scheme), the hostname, or the port of the web agent might be different than that of the SSL off-loader, load balancer, or proxy server. You can set properties in the web agent AMAgent.properties configuration file to ensure that the protocol, hostname, and port of the web agent matches the load balancing mechanism.
