Limit concurrent sessions across all nodes
Use the glide.authenticate.limit.concurrent.sessions.across.all.nodes property with the Limit Concurrent Sessions plugin to manage the number of sessions tracked across all nodes.
The glide.authenticate.limit.concurrent.sessions.across.all.nodes system property is meant to be used with the Limit Concurrent Sessions plugin (com.glide.limit.concurrent.sessions) plugin. When this plugin is installed and configured, the number of open sessions can be limited per user. When this property is set, the number of sessions will be tracked across all nodes instead of a single application nodes.
Ensure that the glide.authenticate.limit.concurrent.sessions.across.all.nodes sysem property is set to true when the Limit Concurrent Sessions plugin (com.glide.limit.concurrent.sessions) plugin is active.
