ASP.Net Interview Question: What are the steps to configure StateServer Mode?

  • StateServer mode session data is stored in a different process so you must ensure that your objects are serializable.
  • <machineKey> elements in Web.config should be identical across all servers. So this ensures that encryption format is same across all computers.
  • IIS metabase (\LM\W3SVC\2) must be identical across all servers in that farm.
