Do sessions in the Test DB and Live DB pull from the same pool?

[ckrusen (Calvin Krusen)]

If some users have open sessions in our Test environment (a regularly updated copy of our Live DB), would they limit the number of licenses available for use by users in the Live DB?

Session counts are held in the app pool so I would assume no since you are probably not running test and live in the same app in IIS.

NOTE - The DB has a backup session table that is occasionally synced to the app server. That can confuse the math is done with large license claims in the User Maintenance screen. I’d recommend truncating Ice.SessionStore when standing up the db backup

Licenses function as if they are a unique pool per SQL database.
