<h3>Persistent Manager Implementation</h3> | |
<p><em><strong>WARNING - Use of this Manager implementation | |
has not been thoroughly tested, and should be considered experimental! | |
</strong></em></p> | |
<p><strong>NOTE:</strong> You must set either the | |
<code>org.apache.catalina.session.StandardSession.ACTIVITY_CHECK</code> or | |
<code>org.apache.catalina.STRICT_SERVLET_COMPLIANCE</code> | |
<a href="systemprops.html">system properties</a> to <code>true</code> for | |
the persistent manager to work correctly.</p> | |
<p>The persistent implementation of <strong>Manager</strong> is | |
<strong>org.apache.catalina.session.PersistentManager</strong>. In | |
addition to the usual operations of creating and deleting sessions, a | |
<code>PersistentManager</code> has the capability to swap active (but | |
idle) sessions out to a persistent storage mechanism, as well as to save | |
all sessions across a normal restart of Tomcat. The actual persistent | |
storage mechanism used is selected by your choice of a | |
<strong>Store</strong> element nested inside the <strong>Manager</strong> | |
element - this is required for use of <code>PersistentManager</code>.</p> | |

addition to the <a href="#Common Attributes">Common Attributes</a> | |

<p>If you are using the <em>Persistent Manager Implementation</em> | |

characteristics of the persistent data storage. Two implementations | |
of the <code><Store></code> element are currently available, | |
with different characteristics, as described below.</p> | |
<h5>File Based Store</h5> | |
<p>The <em>File Based Store</em> implementation saves swapped out | |

in a configurable directory. Therefore, you are likely to encounter | |
scalability problems as the number of active sessions increases, and | |
this should primarily be considered a means to easily experiment.</p> | |

your <code><Manager></code> element with the following attributes: | |
