Before we get into the details of how to make this work, please clarify a few more things:

 

  1. The user does NOT interact with the cookiegenerator service. The application VIP calls this service with some date, gets some data, then proceeds on with normal program flow. Is that correct?

     

  2. If yes to above, are you on a platform that supports sideband? That is a MUCH simpler process than using HTTP::retry.

     

  3. Also if yes to above, does this sideband service get called repeatedly, or just once?

     

  4. You mention authorization header(assuming from Basic auth) or SMCOOKIE. How would the user already have an SMCOOKIE?
