FastCGI in various servers

Server NGINX
1

Hello,

I have a question about fastcgi. If I use 5 web server with fastcgi,
with a script that works with session variables, if it balances the
request to another different server. How to access the session
variables? As will be stored in another /tmp/SESSION_XXX (other
machine).

I can use in nginx fastcgi servers located on another machine, some
configuration examples?. Thanks.

Regards,
Anthony.

You have either to store your sessions on a common shared
backend (moderns web scripting languages allows storing
sessions in memcached or database, but you can also use NFS
for instance, …), or just reduce the odd to loose the
sessions (for instance by using the ip_hash option for the
upstream backend, so clients will stick to the same server
unless nginx detects this servers isn’t available anymore).

Maybe there ?
