Chapter 1

Licenses

We discussed the costs of licensing MetaFrame XP earlier in this chapter. You’ll use the

Licenses tool to add those licenses and to activate licenses after you’ve added them so that they

can be used. There are three sections to the Licenses tool. The Connection tab lists all license

sets issued on a per-connection basis, the Product tab lists all license sets issued on a per-product

basis, and the License Numbers tab, which Figure 1.8 shows, lists all installed licenses,

regardless of type.

Figure 1.8: Added license packs will be listed on the Product or Connection tab of the Licensing tool in the

console.

Load Evaluators

MetaFrame 1.8 supports load balancing with the Load Balancing add-on. MetaFrame XP’s load-

balancing tool is a lot more capable.

While load balancing in MetaFrame was more flexible than that available with NT and Win2K

terminal services alone, MetaFrame XP has more load-balancing options—and better laid out—

than did previous versions of the software. The slider bars are gone and we’re now typing in

percentages or absolute numbers. MetaFrame XP thinks in terms of load evaluators, or

collections of load-balancing rules. Rather than just keeping track of CPU load, memory load,

and the number of users currently logged on, MetaFrame XP supports rules intended to tackle

other bottlenecks on the server, as you can see in Figure 1.9.
