The FlexLM product that does the Citrix licensing in 3.0 can in fact do
redundant license servers, but I dont recall seeing in any of the Citrix
docs if this is supported for MPS. Based on things stated in the
"MetaFrame Access Suite Licensing Guide", p. 21, from Citrix, that
statement "License servers do not talk to each other" pretty much tells
me that you cannot setup redundant servers the way you are thinking.

Subject: [THIN] MPS 3.0 licensing issue
I am working on an issue with our upgrade to mps 3.0. We have
two offices with a dedicated link between them. We are debating on how
to setup our licensing. What we want to accomplish is to have our
licenses shared between both offices. So if one office goes down the
other will still have the use of all the licenses.
I have been doing a lot of reading about how the new licensing
works and I don't really see a way of accomplishing this. The only
options I can see is to have one server in one office and have everyone
in both offices share the licenses from that server. Or have two
servers one in each office and split our total licenses between both
offices. Am I missing something here? Is there no way we can share the
licenses without having just one server in one office?
Thanks
Jonathan
