Sticky cookie support added for web agents behind a load balancer with POST data preservation (6836393)

For web agents that support POST data preservation and are deployed behind a load balancer, the Policy Agent 2.2-04 update release includes the new com.sun.am.policy.agents.config.postdata.preserve.lbcookie property in AMAgent.properties to ensure that the POST data are preserved when using the load balancer.

To use this feature, set the following properties in the AMAgent.properties file:

com.sun.am.policy.agents.config.postdata.preserve.enable = true
com.sun.am.policy.agents.config.postdata.preserve.lbcookie = palbcookie=01

After you set these properties, restart the web agent container.

Note. The new com.sun.am.policy.agents.config.postdata.preserve.lbcookie property applies only to the IIS 6.0, Web Server 6.1, and Web Server 7.0 agents, which are the only agents that support POST data preservation.
