Subject: [THIN] Failover for Citrix Web Interface?
Hello,
This is probably a stupid question but I just got assigned to support the
Citrix farm in our environment so apologies in advance.
We’re on Xenapp 5 with Presentation Server 4.5 – which I believe are the latest
stable releases. We have Enterprise edition.
We don’t have a load balancer. Right now I have 4 servers. I have 1 running
as the license server and primary web interface. 2 are hosting applications
using the built-in load balancing/failover in Citrix. I have the last box
hosting special applications that I would like to keep separate.
Is there a way to do some fail-over with the web interface without a load
balancer? Looks like Citrix got rid of having the centralized web
configuration recently.
Also any general suggestions/pointers on how to achieve load balancing and
failover without use of separate load balancer would also be greatly
appreciated.
Thank you.
Regards,
Peter
