I missed an opportunity recently to get a clear answer to this question. I'd like to know if the APSV transport in PASOE is will now fully supported in combination with a proxy load balancer. There is a KB that says certain transports fully support load balancing (eg. SOAP and REST) but that APSV does *not* . Here is the KB. Progress KB - PASOE with load balancing getting error Communication layer message: General Error: 9998. (7175) It specifically mentions version 11.5 but it doesn't make any claims about either 11.6 or 11.7. But I think that as-of OE 11.7, we are supposed to be able to put PASOE behind a load balancer and connect to it with the APSV transport as well. For example, here is a section of the docs that seems to say as much: OpenEdge 11.7 Documentation In that link it seems to say that a proxy load balancer will be able to support the APSV transport so long as enableRequestChunking and useHTTPSessions are both enabled. Am I understanding this information correctly? If so, I really wish the KB article would be updated to say that the APSV transport *is* supported for load balancing so long as the version of OpenEdge is 11.6 and up (or whatever.) We are very excited about the possibility of putting PASOE behind a load balancer (such as Citrix NetScaler), but the KB doesn't tell us whether Progress will support a configuration that includes a load-balancer. Any clarification would be appreciated.
