Citrix also has resource management with PS4 Enterprise. Plus there are
free tools like threadmaster.

All good information Bob, thanks a bunch.
Adv vs Enterprise...I think were leaning towards Enterprise because of
resource manager. In the class there was quite a bit of information you
could retrieve.

You should already have an idea of whether 3 servers are sufficient for your
peak concurrent connection time periods. There's no "rule of thumb" here,
it's totally dependent on hardware resources versus appload, and every app
is different.
You do not need the web interface. It is cool and has some nice features,
but if all your users are on the LAN/WAN... not required.
No prob having your licensing on the Citrix box. I prefer to have it
separate, because I like being able to lose any given App Server without
affecting the farm operations. So... if you have another place to put it,
it's a good idea architecturally, but certainly not necessary. There are no
significant load problems or any inherent restraint or incompatibility.
If all you need is load balancing, buy Standard, not Enterprise. Lots of
nice features in Enterprise, but they do cost. Also, unlike TSCALs, you
need only purchase a sufficient number of Client licenses to cover max
concurrent user levels. So... if you only have 100 users at any one time...
you only need 100 client licenses. (add your normal fat, tho)
goodluck,
Bob

Greetings all. We are looking at implementing a Presentation Server 4.0 farm
from scratch, new, never used it. We've always used RDP but there are some
features that Citrix offers that we'd like to make use of. User base is
about 400-500 but just one site, no remote sites.
We are thinking of a three server farm with load balancing. We have a
variety of applications that range from home-grown to Office apps.
I'd also like to get some input on if it's ok for the license server to be
on one of the Citrix boxes itself or should it reside elsewhere. Same
question for the web interface and can you still publish applications
without the use of the web interface?
Sorry for all the questions.
