1、配置tomcat的server.xml文件

在server.xml文件中的host节点下面增加Cluster节点

<!-- 用于Session复制 -->
<Cluster className="org.apache.catalina.ha.tcp.SimpleTcpCluster" channelSendOptions="8">
    <Manager className="org.apache.catalina.ha.session.DeltaManager" expireSessionsOnShutdown="false" notifyListenersOnReplication="true" />
    <Channel className="org.apache.catalina.tribes.group.GroupChannel">
        <Membership className="org.apache.catalina.tribes.membership.McastService" address="228.0.0.4" 
                    port="45564" frequency="500" dropTime="3000" />
        <!-- 这里如果启动出现异常，则可以尝试把address中的"auto"改为"localhost" -->
        <Receiver className="org.apache.catalina.tribes.transport.nio.NioReceiver" address="auto" port="4000" 
                  autoBind="100" selectorTimeout="5000" maxThreads="6" />
        <Sender className="org.apache.catalina.tribes.transport.ReplicationTransmitter">
            <Transport className="org.apache.catalina.tribes.transport.nio.PooledParallelSender" />
        </Sender>
        <Interceptor className="org.apache.catalina.tribes.group.interceptors.TcpFailureDetector" />
        <Interceptor className="org.apache.catalina.tribes.group.interceptors.MessageDispatchInterceptor" />
    </Channel>
    <Valve className="org.apache.catalina.ha.tcp.ReplicationValve" filter="" />
    <Valve className="org.apache.catalina.ha.session.JvmRouteBinderValve" />
    <Deployer className="org.apache.catalina.ha.deploy.FarmWarDeployer" tempDir="/tmp/war-temp/" 
              deployDir="/tmp/war-deploy/" watchDir="/tmp/war-listen/" watchEnabled="false" />
    <ClusterListener className="org.apache.catalina.ha.session.ClusterSessionListener" />
</Cluster>

2、在server.xml中修改tomcat的端口

例如：tomcat1 18080
tomcat2 28080

3、修改项目中的web.xml文件

在web.xml文件中增加<distributable/>节点

4、配置nginx

需改nginx的nginx.conf

#user  nobody;
worker_processes  1;

#error_log  logs/error.log;
#error_log  logs/error.log  notice;
#error_log  logs/error.log  info;

#pid        logs/nginx.pid;


events {
    worker_connections  1024;
}

    include       mime.types;
    default_type  application/octet-stream;

    #                  '$status $body_bytes_sent "$http_referer" '
    #                  '"$http_user_agent" "$http_x_forwarded_for"';

    #access_log  logs/access.log  main;

    sendfile        on;

    keepalive_timeout  65;

    #gzip  on;
