QuestionQ25

Administer and Configure the environment

An administrator is using the default load balancing in plugin-cfg.xml with three cluster members in the cluster group. They observe that one cluster member receives more requests than its configured LoadBalanceWeight.

How can they investigate and resolve this issue?

Explanation

WebSphere web-server plug-in session affinity routes requests with the same session identifier back to the assigned cluster member regardless of LoadBalanceWeight, so total request counts can be uneven even when new requests are balanced correctly. Setting LogLevel=Stats records the selected server and load-balancing information, allowing session-affinity requests to be identified and the configuration assessed.
