We've used an F5 BigIP load balancer for two IIS servers for over 4 years without problems. They are currently running Mid Tier 6.3 patch 20 on IIS/ServletExec and are about to be rebuilt for Apache/Tomcat. But all the load balancing is done through the BigIP, not through IIS. We have a 60 minute timeout with session affinity (sticky bit) enabled and balancing based on least connections.

But we were told by support to route all traffic from http to https using rewrite commands in apache. Then, the ip stickiness on the https load balancer works. I don't like the solution. But it's the only one we have working for AR System 6.3 mid-tier Thanks, -Geoff On Nov 2, 2007 10:43 AM, LJ LongWing (Head) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Mid-Tier 7.1 > Remedy 6.3 P21 > Tomcat (version?) > > Ok...Here is the situation.
