Compatibility with older user session ID format

Beginning with Reverse Proxy verion 6.0, the format of the user session ID value additionally includes the name of the replica set.

The user-session-ids-include-replica-set stanza entry in the [session] stanza of the Reverse Proxy configuration file controls this operation. The default value is "yes". For example:

A value of "yes" instructs Reverse Proxy to include the replica set name in the user session ID value. This setting allows you to use the pdadmin server task terminate session to terminate user sessions on virtual host junctions.

If you require user session ID compatibility with versions of Reverse Proxy prior to version 6.0, you can disable this function. For example:

A value of "no" instructs Reverse Proxy to not include the replica set name in the user session ID value.

If user-session-ids-include-replica-set = no, Reverse Proxy assumes that the pdadmin server task terminate session command applies to members of the replica set defined by the [session], standard-junction-replica-set stanza entry.

The pdadmin server task terminate session command does not succeed for sessions initiated on virtual host junctions.
