HOW TO: Use SoftArtisans SessionPro in a Web Farm Environment
Problem

When using SoftArtisans SessionPro in a web farm environment, there has to be a copy of SessionPro (one license) on each server, but the session data is only stored on one server.


Solution

If you have 3 servers and you want to store session data on Server3, the path in which session data is stored on Server3 will be hard-coded to that machine, for example “C:\winnt\system32\inetsrv\Xsession” (local path), while the paths on the other machines will point to Server3, for example “//Server3/winnt/system32/inetsrv/Xsession”.

Server1 (UNC Path pointing to Server3) - “//Server3/winnt/system32/inetsrv/Xsession”

Server2 (UNC Path pointing to Server3) - “//Server3/winnt/system32/inetsrv/Xsession”

Server3 (Hard-coded path to local server) - “C:\winnt\system32\inetsrv\Xsession”
