<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">The Amazon Load balancer had two nodes: 10.60.6.37 and 10.60.5.40. During the process of user’s operation, the user’s requests from the same web browser went through two nodes alternatively. When the switch
happened, I can see the “removed session” message in transaction.log. Do you think the “removed session” by Shibd was caused by the switching nodes of ALB?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

The client, but if you botch the setup, the SP may only see the former (or even worse, see a changing address based on instances of the load balancer).<br>
