For the most part yes.  If your running the latest Rollup you'll at
least have an update that will temporarily throttle the number of
connections to a given server by jacking up the load value.  So if
Server A has a problem and is the LLS and 3 new people want to connect,
not all the connections will go to Server A.

PS 4.5 has health monitoring and checking.  If Server A has an issue,
it can automatically be removed from the pool (provided you have the
resources to pull this off).

Ok this is really a newbie-ish type of question so I apologize up front.

We are running PS 4.0 on Windows 2003 servers. Published apps, published
desktops and other desktops connections are all used. With published
apps, load balancing is of course used. What if a particular server in a
group of say 6 is having some type of connection issue. Regardless of
the actual issue, be it hardware, network, memory, really anything that
prevents a client from establishing a session with a particular server,
we'll call it Server A. 

Server A is having some type of problem so it has the least number of
users on it. So I launch a published app and the load balancing is going
to try to connect me to Server A as it is being used the least, correct
or incorrect?
