Set the Maximum User Session Cache Size

You can set a maximum for the number of users the Agent maintains in the session cache with the following parameter:

• MaxSessionCacheSize

  Specifies the maximum number of users the Agent maintains in its session cache. The session cache stores the session IDs of users who authenticate successfully. If those users access another resource in the same realm during the same session, the Agent uses the information from the session cache instead of calling the Policy Server. When the maximum number is reached, the Agent replaces the oldest user records with new user records.

  Base the value of this parameter on the number of users that you expect to access and use resources for a sustained period of time. If you set this value to a high number, ensure that sufficient system memory is available.

  Default: (Domino web servers) 1000

  Default: (IIS and Sun Java System web servers) 700

  Default: (Apache web servers) 750

To set a maximum size of the user session cache

1. Set the value of the MaxSessionCacheSize parameter to the maximum number of users you want.
2. For framework agents, you must restart the web server to apply the change.

   The maximum user session cache size is changed.
