Enable and disable the distributed session cache for WebSEAL

Use the dsess-enabled stanza entry in the [session] stanza of the WebSEAL configuration file to enable and disable use of the distributed session cache by WebSEAL.

When the distributed session cache is enabled for a clustered WebSEAL server environment, session cookies are used to maintain distributed session state information. The [session] ssl-id-sessions stanza entry does not apply when the distributed session cache is in use. The phrase "dsess" refers to "distributed session".

  • To disable WebSEAL from using the distributed session cache to maintain user sessions, enter a value of no (default). For example:
    [session]
    dsess-enabled = no
