One other thing about that process:

Add instances (they will be new version.) ..
Turn off Auto Recover for the old version instances
Turn on Refuse New Sessions for the old version instances

This seems to imply that after adding new instances, you can then pick and choose which instances to turn on Refuse New Sessions for. Is the sequence out of order? To me it would seem you would need to turn on Refuse new Sessions first,

At which point no new users could log in and your site would appear to be off line.

then add the new instances. Same thing for turning off auto recover, if you just want it to apply to the old instances, although that's not as big a deal since you can turn auto-recover back on after deleting the old instances. But not being able to refuse new session individually means you have to first refuse new sessions, and THEN start up the new app. And this means there will be a period where you won't have an application accepting any sessions. Or am I confused (probably the case)?

Yes, very confused. See above "Turn on Refuse New Sessions for the old version instances". As in one by one, individually. Unschedule them, turn off auto recover, turn on refused. This is done one by one for each old instance.

I have another quick question. Why, when I set an application to Refuse new session, does it do that for awhile, but then revert back to accepting new session after about 1/2 hour?

Um, 'cause all the sessions terminated so the app halted itself and wotaskd restarted it? This is, after all, the entire reason for Refuse New Sessions to exist. If you just want it to die, turn off Auto Recover.


Also, is there anyway to set Refuse New Sessions on just one instance instead of having to do it for all currently running instances?

It usually is not something you do manually. Schedule the instances to restarted at staggered intervals and the rest will be taken care of for you.
