After reading these great FAQ and Discussions ...

ASP.NET Session State

Understanding session state modes + FAQ
http://www.asp.net/Forums/ShowPost.aspx?tabindex=1&PostID=7504

Session State and Clustered SQL Server 2000
http://www.asp.net/Forums/ShowPost.aspx?tabindex=1&PostID=435215

we are in the web farm environment, but we decide not to use SQLServer to
store our states, just because it's the worest performance in all state management
solution.

Currently, we got 16 web servers and we are using a (one) seperate server as our State Server and we hope to find any way to tweak) and to prevent it as a single point of failure in the whole system in the web farm.

Is there anyway I can check if the State Service is up (not only if the service is running, but running healthly)? Where are the State data actually located in StateServer? Are they in files/registry/MSDE somewhere?

We have purchased Windows 2003/Application Center 2000/SQL Cluster on EMC SAN/Microsoft Operation Manager/BizTalk Server/Content Management Server/Commerce Server on the whole EC system. We do hope to find the best solution to resolve the single point of failure problem on StateServer.

Is there any 3rd party solution which can resolve this?
Thanks so much in advance.

Regards,
Po-Shan.

Po-Shan Chang,

If your server is crashing or hanging you might want to
download our ReJuvin8 tool. It's free for the first
15-days. It can keep your site running despite problems.

It's designed to detect problems then restart or reboot.
It can restart ANY programs, services, or processes in
precise order. It doesn't fix bugs but it does give you some
breathing room while you are finding them. ReJuvin8 also
gives you email and telephone alert messages and graphic
status reports. It runs as a Windows Service.

It can also test, alert, and report on URLs running anywhere
on any server on your net connection. So if you use multiple
servers you can use them to watch each other, too.

ReJuvin8 has both an automatic and a custom mode. In the
auto mode you make all the settings by pointing and
clicking. This will handle most applications.

The custom mode uses heartbeat synch files to get absolute
detection that key processes are working. Tools and
instructions are provided to help you do this. We also offer
customization as a contract service.

Charles
