Binding to a specific application server

If you are using the Apache, iPlanet, Netscape, or Sun Java System redirector plug-in, you can bind the redirector to a specific server. If a redirector is bound to a server and the server fails to respond to a request, the redirector returns immediately. By default, a request fails over to another server when the initial server does not respond. If you are running Web applications that are not marked as distributable, you must bind the redirector to a specific server. If a bound server fails to respond to a request, the redirector returns the error status to the client. To bind the redirector to a server, add this line to the redirector configuration file; serverName is the name of the server:

Connector.BindToServer /serverName

See “Editing the redirector configuration file” on page § (iPlanet, Netscape, and Sun Java System), or § (Apache) for more information.
