Change the HTTP session management cookie name if the adapter
and CLM are installed in the same server or are behind the same reverse
proxy, such as IBM® HTTP Server.
About this task
It is necessary to change the HTTP session management cookie
name under these circumstances:
- The adapter is installed on the same WebSphere® Application Server as CLM
- The adapter is behind the same reverse proxy as CLM
Both the adapter and CLM use the same JSESSIONID cookie in the
HTTP session management. CLM sometimes resets the cookie when you
log in to CLM, which causes the adapter to lose its session in some
linking scenarios.
For more information about cookies, see Cookie settings.
Procedure
- From an administrative console, click .
- Under Web Module Properties, click Session
management.
- Under Session tracking mechanism,
click Enable Cookies.
- Change the name of the cookie. For example,
type LIASESSIONID

- Click OK.
- Save the changes to the administrative configuration.
