2X VirtualDesktopServer Load Balancing • 126
on the counters chosen, will determine the terminal server that will handle the
incoming connection. Three different counters are available:
Sessions: the connection is redirected to the server with the least
number of sessions in use.
Memory Utilization: the connection is redirected to the server with
the best free/used RAM ratio.
CPU Utilization: the connection is redirected to the server with the
best free/used CPU time ratio.
If more that one counter is selected for load balancing, 2X LoadBalancer will
add the counter ratios together, and redirect the session to the server with the
most favorable combined ratio.
The recommended setting is to enable all three counters, unless there is a
particular need for one of the other counters available.
NOTE: It will be necessary to install 2X Terminal Server Agent on all Terminal
Servers and Citrix Servers and/or 2X VDI Agent on all Virtual Desktop Hosts
before they can successfully participate in a load-balanced farm.
Enable the “Reconnect to disconnected sessions” option to allow 2X
Publishing Agent to redirect an incoming user session to a previously
disconnected session owned by the same user.
You may also choose to reconnect active sessions by selecting ‘Limit User to
one session per desktop’. Therefore if a user connects to a Terminal Server
and re-connects again while there is an active session started by the same
user, he will be connected to his same active session.
NOTE: To limit users to one session per desktop, make sure that the setting
‘Restrict each user to one session’ is set on all Terminal Servers from the
Terminal Services configurations\Connections.
