TERMINAL SERVER BALANCING
So you have 24 thin clients on your plant floor running the primary HMI application. It’s a large application and it requires two terminal servers to support your 24 clients. How do you decide which clients connect to which terminal servers? Why not let ThinManager decide for you?
When you add the SmartSession Plug-In to ThinManager, you add the power of load balancing. Rather than manually configuring half of your clients to connect to one server and half to another, let ThinManager decide in real time exactly which terminal server is most available. SmartSession takes differing CPU levels, memory levels and current session information into account and calculates the best server for your next client session.
If you add clients and require more server power to support them, simply drop another terminal server onto your SmartSession group and it will be balanced with the others and ready to receive client sessions. No more complicated configurations to manage.
Use the queuing feature to minimize the server stress and disk trashing that occur when many clients try to start sessions on a server simultaneously. Queuing brings clients on in an orderly fashion and keeps your systems running smoothly.
