6.6.11: Administering HTTP session support (overview)

Each servlet engine automatically contains a single Session Manager. When configuring the Session Manager, the WebSphere administrator can:

  • Enable sessions

  • Specify which session tracking mechanism to use to pass the sessionid between the browser and the servlet
  • Specify whether to save session data in a database (persistent sessions)
  • Define the persistent sessions characteristics
  • Define other characteristics of the Session Manager environment

  When moving from WebSphere Application Server Version 3.0 or 3.01 to Versions 3.02 or 3.5, the administrator needs to migrate Session Manager settings pertaining to database persistence.
