Web Services Addressing policy set binding
Use this page to modify the endpoint reference binding for Web Services Addressing (WS-Addressing). The product enforces this binding on JAX-WS web service applications that use WS-Addressing. This panel applies only to the WAS ND version of the product. From the console...

Prevent workload management of referenced endpoints in clusters
By default, when an application uses the WS-Addressing API createEndpointReference(service, port) method to create an endpoint reference in a cluster environment, that endpoint reference is workload managed. Select this option to prevent the workload management of such endpoint references.
If you select this option, messages that are targeted at such an endpoint reference are always sent to the node on which the endpoint reference was created. This behavior is useful when the endpoint contains in-memory state that is held on a single node, for example, in Web Services Resource Framework (WS-RF) applications.
Although the endpoint reference always represents the same endpoint, the state that is held at that endpoint is not reliable. If the node that is hosting the endpoint fails, the state might be lost. Note also that if the node fails, the endpoint reference is no longer valid.
