Terracotta Sessions

[Curry, Warren]

I would recommend avoiding terracotta all together.

Hello all,

I am looking for a little guidance or a best practice.  I am deploying a two node IDP cluster using Terracotta.  I will be adding Terracotta to a development IDP to create a quorum in my cluster.  My first thought was not to link Terracotta and Tomcat on the development machine since the development machine is stand alone.  It occurs to me that if I link the two together I can test upgrades and other maintenance prior to deployment on the production IDPs.  The second approach seems the better option but will I have session issues.  The hostnames will be different so I will not have cookie issues but I am unsure of handling session ids.  If someone can shed a little light on how sessions are handled I'd appreciate it.

Thanks in advance,

-Chris
