Is SAP EP session aware?

[Former Member]

Is SAP EP 2004s session aware? If a session is established with ServerA and that session gets routed to ServerB, will ServerB know that the session is already established with ServerA? I thought that there was a session table but it is appearing that is not the case. I would like this confirmed or denied.

Robert,

Your suggestion did not answer my question directly but it did lead me to what I think is the answer.

SessionTableTimeout setting:

I'll post back after I have time to try this out.

Hi Timothy,

if you are talking about ServerA and ServerB being in the same cluster, the J2EE engine provides a failover mechanism for stateful sessions as you can read here:

Hope this answers your question,

Hi Timothy,

I believe this is a programming choice. Stateful sessions should never get routed from one server to another (by use of cookies, etc.).

Best Regards,
