nuxeo clustering configuration and session replication

[Lorenzol_]

I was looking on how to implement session replication across my cluster nodes and found this comment in the server manager config:

<! -- Disable HTTP Session persistence between restart since webengine session objects
are not serializable -- >

Is this accurate? Nuxeo doesn't support serializing session objects so user will never be able to implement transparent failover?

Is there a list of the non serializable objects and can they be disabled?

Yes transparent session failover is not something we've worked on, there have been tradeoffs in other areas of the code that would make it rather complex to implement.

To be honest, we rather recommmend using a stateless application to avoid all that complexity.
