It sounds like you really don't have a good idea of what your
requirements really are. Around here, we call that "do-what-I-mean
semantics": you want the software to do the "right" thing but you
can't explain what the "right" thing actually is.

Try to express your requirements in simpler language. For instance,
you have two versions of your software: one one port 8009 and one on
port 7009. Under what conditions should a particular user be sent to
either of those versions?

If you are using sessions, the load-balancer will keep a client
associated with the right version *after* the first request, but you
still need to decide under which circumstances a *new* client should
be sent to one or the other. Once you can answer that, we can help you
configure it.
