Problem:
When clustering and load balancing are used, each web server connector should be able to be configured independently to have a list of prefered servers where all requests should be sent unless all of the prefered servers are unavailable or sticky sessions are used and the request is part of a session that was created on a server in the cluster that is not on the preferred server list. The load balancing algorithm selected should be used to distribute new requests across preferred servers only unless the preferred servers are all unavailable in which case the request can be sent to any cluster member. This would be helpful in larger clusters or clusters that are geographically dispersed.
Also, it should be possible to enable session replication without enabling load balancing, so that the cold fusion servers/instances would replicate session information, but each web server connector would only send requests to a single statically configured coldfusion instance. This would be useful when an external load balancer is used in front of the web servers.
