Session affinity without session persistence

When server session support is enabled and an incoming client request has session information, HTTP sessions are kept in the memory of the appserver containing the Web application. The plug-in will route multiple requests for the same HTTP session to the same server by examining the CloneID information that is stored with the session key. Thus, the session is kept for a client during the following requests.

The plug-in will route the client to an alternative server in case the original server is not available. If the alternative server cannot retrieve the session information, all session information is lost and the client needs to start over again. The failover process fails, but the client can continue without the previous session information.
