I don't know anything about IIS session mgmt.
If this would be useful to others setting up an LVS,
could you give us some more info about it? Thanks

8hrs = 8 * 60 * 60 sec = some_number
ipvsadm -A -t VIP -p some_number
you are probably going to handle tcp timeouts as well
(see postings in the last week and in the HOWTO).
The best solution is not to use persistence, but to re-write
the application, so that the state information is stored
in a place accessable to all realservers. In this way,
if one realserver fails, the session with the client can continue.
(see the section in the HOWTO on persistence).
