Information
If RECYCLE_FACADES is true or if a security manager is in use, a new facade object will be created for each request. This reduces the chances that a bug in an application might expose data from one request to another.Solution
Navigate to and open:/etc/vmware-eam/catalina.properties
Update or remove the following line:
org.apache.catalina.connector.RECYCLE_FACADES=true
Restart the service with the following command:
# vmon-cli --restart eam
