That's very common with stateful applications. Lots of people use HAProxy or other application-aware LB's to keep the sessions "sticky" to a single app server.

Keeping a session "sticky" once it is assigned to a server is a somewhat different issue than controlling the assignment.

"Persistence" is more what I want but digging this out of HAProxy configuration and making changes on the fly looks troublesome.
