Allocate
sessions
The number of deferred sessions alloted per minute that the
server accepts after the minimum exclusion time has elapsed.
If the number of sessions exceeds the number of sessions that
can be allocated in one minute, the sessions are allocated to the
next minute. Allocations are equally spaced within each
minute. For example, if the allocation rate is 10 sessions per
minute, then deferred sessions are allocated every six seconds.
A default allocation page is served to deferred sessions. The
customer is asked to wait a certain amount of time before
receiving access to the site. Once the customer gains access,
his/her session is given priority over new sessions. Refer to
the section “Creating an Allocation Page for Redirected
Sessions” on page 25 for information about the default
allocation page and how you can modify it.
The minimum exclusion time provides a minimum delay. For
example, a minimum exclusion time of 60 seconds ensures
that a session cannot return in less than 60 seconds. This
minimum ensures that the system load is immediately reduced.
Do not set an allocation rate that is too high. When a session
returns in its allocated slot, it returns as priority a session. You
should monitor the percentage of priority requests (using the
table of statistics) and reduce the allocation rate if it
approaches 50%.
You can also monitor the "Last Allocation Delay" in the table
of statistics. This shows how long a deferred customer waited
before his/her session was admitted.
Defer to URL Optional. The location of a web page on an alternate server
that is served to the deferred customer.
The URL should use the fully qualified domain name or IP
address of the alternate server.
