Thanks Steve. Doesn't really look like a lot of cons. -----Original Message----- From: thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Steve Greenberg Sent: Thursday, January 11, 2007 12:18 PM To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] Re: Advice on different farms The main convenience of one farm is single point of management. I assume each location keeps the data the Citrix farms accesses and creates and that this would not change if you had one farm. So your "pro" would be single management interface, your "con" would be the dependency on the WAN for communication to the license server and datastore, not huge bandwidth, but more stuff over the wire to handle.

Our corporate office has a PS 4.0 Citrix farm. We are a remote facility with our own PS 4.0 farm. Is it completely separate from corp. We are connected via a T1. Obviously there are benefits for all Citrix server to be in the same far. However, I am looking for the drawbacks and the cons to having Citrix servers in the same farm but separated by a WAN link.
