Example: Configuring for session tracking using wsadmin

The following example configures the session management of a Web container for session tracking:

• Identify the application server and assign it to the server variable:

  set server [$AdminConfig getid /Cell:mycell/Node:mynode/Server:server1/]

  Example output:

  server1(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode/servers/server1:server.xml#Server_1)

• Identify the session management belonging to the server and assign it to the smgr variable:

  set smgr [$AdminConfig list SessionManager $server]

  Example output:

  (cells/mycell/nodes/mynode/servers/server1:server.xml#SessionManager_1)

    $AdminConfig modify $smgr {{enableUrlRewriting true} {enableProtocolSwitchRewriting false} {enableSSLTracking false}}

  • This example command enables SSL tracking:

    $AdminConfig modify $smgr {{enableSSLTracking true} {enableProtocolSwitchRewriting false} {enableUrlRewriting false}}

• Save the changes with the following command:

  $AdminConfig save
