Enabling Session Replication

You can enable session replication in a cluster using either the Admin Console or the CLI. Before you enable session replication, make sure that your browser is cookie enabled.

The server.xml file contains the information related to session replication. A sample server.xml file with session replication enabled is given below:

<cluster>
		<local-host>hostA</local-host>
			<instance>
         <host>hostB</host>
      </instance>
      <instance>
          <host>hostC</host>
      </instance>
       <instance>
          <host>hostD</host>
      </instance>
      <instance>
           <host>hostA</host>
    <session-replication/>
</cluster>
			

If you are using the default values for the following elements, the entry for these elements will not be available in the server.xml configuration file:
