| of Jetty. The <a class="link" href="http://download.eclipse.org/jetty/stable-9/apidocs/org/eclipse/jetty/server/session/HashSessionManager.html" target="_top"> |
| <code class="code">HashSessionManager</code> </a> supports this feature. If you enable |
| persistence, the <code class="code">HashSessionManager</code> saves all existing, valid |
| Sessions to disk before shutdown completes. On restart, Jetty restores the |
| saved Sessions.</p><div class="section"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a name="enabling-persistence"></a>Enabling Persistence</h3></div></div></div><p>A SessionManager does just what its name suggests–it manages the |
| lifecycle and state of sessions on behalf of a webapp. Each webapp must |
| have its own unique SessionManager instance. Enabling persistence is as |
| simple as configuring the <code class="code">HashSessionManager</code> as the |
| SessionManager for a webapp and telling it where on disk to store the |
| sessions:</p><div class="informalexample"><script type="syntaxhighlighter" class="brush: xml;toolbar: false"> |

| servlet environment starts up (by default, Jetty eagerly loads sessions as |
| part of the container startup, but before it initializes the servlet |
| environment). For example, the Wicket web framework requires the servlet |
| environment to be available when sessions are activated.</p><p>Using <code class="code">SessionManager.setLazyLoad(true)</code>, Jetty loads |
| sessions lazily either when it receives the first request for a session, |
| or the session scavenger runs for the first time, whichever happens first. |
