Hello Experts,
In my XI3.0 system, I have 3 server nodes in Java instance (J2ee 640).
I want to know -
How the load balancing happens between 3 server nodes?
Is this automatic by Java instance dispatcher? or there is a way to loadbalance server nodes?
How to check load on each server node?
We are not using SAP Webdispatcher in our landscape.
Kindly advise.
Best Regards
Sachin Bhatt
Hi Sachin,
The SAP recommended way to load balance any HTTP and HTTPS request (it doesn't matter if this is located in an ABAP or J2EE stack) is to use Web Dispatcher.

Hi Sachin,
In your case load balancing will be performed by Java instance dispatcher only.
When a user first logs on, your network switch should identify that the user does not have an existing session and load balance them to a WAS java dispatcher. The dispatcher will then load balance the new user session to one of it's server nodes. For future requests (within the same session), the network switch should identify that you have an existing session and pass it to the same dispatcher (known as stickiness). The dispatcher will in turn pass it to the same server node. So in theory once you have a session, you should be sent to the same server node.
