NetWeaver 7.0 portal load balancing with F5

Hi Peter, make sure you have cookie persistence turned on and apply it to the virtual server. From the deployment guide (http://www.f5.com/solutions/applications/sap/netweaver/) Take a look at the section 'Creating persistence profiles". It will help you Create the cookie persistence profile, the fallback persistence profile and the n in the Virtual Server, it will show you how to apply those profiles.

 

 

If you have already created the virtual server, first follow the instructions on creating the persistence profiles, then select that Virtual Server in the BIG-IP UI, then select the "resources" tab and apply your cookie persistence profile as the default.

 

 

This should solve your issue as long as you have setup your SAP Enterprise Portal instance to be a "Load Balanced" instance. There are instructions at the start of the deployment guide that highlight the procedure around that. You may have to check with your SAP admin to double check those settings if the cookie persistence setting does not work.

 

Nojan,

 

Thanks for your quick response, I will let the network administator try it.

 

 

Best regards,
