I have haproxy setup to forward requests to tomcat or apache with a test ping every 2 seconds. This however is creating hundreds of sessions on tomcat :( and we monitor # of active sessions to know how many users are on tomcat so this number is heavily inflated now by haproxy. Is there a way to tell haproxy to have the ping test contain the session last used when talkking to tomcat so are session numbers are only inflated by 1 instead of hundreds.
thanks, Dean
