Exam AWS Certified SAP on AWS - Specialty PAS-C01 topic 1 question 2 discussion

A global retail company is running its SAP landscape on AWS. Recently, the company made changes to its SAP Web Dispatcher architecture. The company added an additional SAP Web Dispatcher for high availability with an Application Load Balancer (ALB) to balance the load between the two SAP Web Dispatchers.
When users try to access SAP through the ALB, the system is reachable. However, the SAP backend system is showing an error message. An investigation reveals that the issue is related to SAP session handling and distribution of requests. The company confirmed that the system was working as expected with one SAP Web Dispatcher. The company replicated the configuration of that SAP Web Dispatcher to the new SAP Web Dispatcher.
How can the company resolve the error?

  • A. Maintain persistence by using session cookies. Enable session stickiness (session affinity) on the SAP Web Dispatchers by setting the wdisp/HTTP/esid_support parameter to True.
  • B. Maintain persistence by using session cookies. Enable session stickiness (session affinity) on the ALB.
  • C. Turn on host-based routing on the ALB to route traffic between the SAP Web Dispatchers.
  • D. Turn on URL-based routing on the ALB to route traffic to the application based on URL.

B: "The company confirmed that the system was working as expected with one SAP Web Dispatcher." , so Web Dispatcher settings aren't the problem.

Selected Answer: B
Must be B, the setting on webdispatcher affects how requests are distributed among the application servers - if the issue wasn't existing before, it must be connected to the multiple dispatchers setup. We must to make sure that once the user is connected to given dispatcher, it will remain so. B is the best answer then.

Option A seems to be correct. Maintaining persistence through session cookies and enabling session stickiness on the SAP Web Dispatchers seems like a reasonable approach to ensure that user sessions are consistently directed to the same backend server. The parameter wdisp/HTTP/esid_support set to True should help in achieving this.

Selected Answer: B
B. the ALB is splitting the traffic, so stickiness needs to be set in the ALB, setting it in the dispatcher seems pointless of the ALB is still splitting the traffic between different dispatchers...

A. The error message being displayed is related to SAP session handling and distribution of requests. By using session cookies, the company can maintain persistence of the user’s session across requests. By enabling session stickiness on the SAP Web Dispatchers by setting the wdisp/HTTP/esid_support parameter to True, the company can ensure that requests from the same user are always routed to the same SAP Web Dispatcher. This would resolve the error message that the company is seeing and ensure that the backend system is working as expected with the new SAP Web Dispatcher configuration.

A is correct. To resolve the error related to SAP session handling and distribution of requests when using an Application Load Balancer (ALB) to balance the load between two SAP Web Dispatchers, the company should maintain session stickiness (session affinity) by using session cookies. This will ensure that each user's session is directed to the same SAP Web Dispatcher that the initial request was directed to. Option A is the correct solution. The wdisp/HTTP/esid_support parameter is used to enable session stickiness on the SAP Web Dispatchers. By setting it to True, session information is maintained by the SAP Web Dispatcher in a session cookie. This cookie is then used to direct subsequent requests from the same user to the same SAP Web Dispatcher. Option B is incorrect because enabling session stickiness on the ALB would not be enough to ensure that session information is maintained when requests are directed to different SAP Web Dispatchers. Option C is incorrect because host-based routing would not address the issue of maintaining session information. Option D is incorrect because URL-based routing is not designed to maintain session information.

I think A. The issue is related to session stickness. Enabling wdisp/HTTP/esid_support you can maintain persistence of users session across requests.

I am also voting for B. There is a connection between ALB and the dispatchers, but user sessions won't be handle correctly, therefore causing an error.
