I am using the apache mod_proxy load balancer:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_proxy_balancer.html

I am not able to find any configuration change that I could make to achieve
this.
Here is the situation:
my web application has 2 versions say N and N+1. N has 5 instances and N+1
has 5 instances running on the same cloud.
A user gets to an instance of N the first time. I want all the following
requests from that user to go to any of the 5 instances of N and not go to
any instance of N+1 at all.
