I am an enthusiastic user of the new parallel deployment feature of tomcat 7. But I'm a little unclear about how it interacts with session replication.
If I have a cluster of tomcat instances: instance1/A#001.war instance2/A#001.war instance3/A#001.war And they are all replicating sessions (say using SimpleTcpCluster). Then I want to upgrade, so I introduce more war files: instance1/A#001.war instance1/A#002.war instance2/A#001.war instance2/A#002.war instance3/A#001.war instance3/A#002.war Now, since these are effectively the same applications, they are all on the same multicast address and port. So I assume that sessions will now replicate between all 6 instances. * Will the old instances ever shut down? That is, will the sessions ever die on the old instances if they are part of the session replication cluster? * Is parallel deployment only designed to work with sticky sessions?
