I too would say that 25-30 users is pretty much the max, but again it depends on the TS server HW specs & configuration. Subject: Terminal Server Suggested Capacity I've looked through all the system requirements for GP, but found no recommendation about terminal server usage.Ĭan someone point me in the right direction if that information exists? Any feedback from other TS users would be appreicated too! I feel that 40-50 users on one server is well past the max, but that's just my opinion. To back up my request I need to find out if Microsoft has recommendation of how many users should be running GP on a single server. However, as we grow, we want more terminal servers to increase performance, support, fail over, etc. The farm/load balancing is doing it's job and splitting the load 50/50 over the 2 servers. We've got at least 100 users logged into the TS and GP throughout the day. Currently we have a TS Farm spread over two beefy terminal servers. The users won’t suffer any application outage.We're running a heavy install of GP 2013 - many modules and many users. In case of client side network outage or ALOHA failover, users will keep on being redirected to the same server. Now, the users can point their RDP client to the VIP and get load-balanced.

# wait up to 5s for an RDP cookie in the request Configurationįind below the configuration for such infrastructure: peers aloha In order to ensure stickiness, the ALOHAs will use the RDP cookie, store it in a table where it is associated to the server serving the request.įinally, this table is shared between both ALOHAs, in order to ensure safe failover. The ALOHAs share a VIP, 10.0.0.18, on which clients will get connected. The TSE infrastructure looks like the image below:īasically, we have a couple of ALOHA load-balancer, in active/passive mode.

The configuration below shows you how you can build outage-free Terminal server infrastructure with ALOHA and HAProxy. One main issue when using RDP is to be able to stick a user to a server. You need to load-balance Microsoft Terminal Services or remoteapps.
