I don't know what Version of JDE you are running, but we have the following set-up. I could almost cut and paste Terry's set-up as ours. It works great for us. We run Oneworld XE SP 20. 6 server farm, NT4 WTS w/Metaframe 1.8 load balanced, Dual 733 MHz w/2 GB memory - Through testing we have seen as high as 60 users connected to one of these servers. It started to slow down then. - We try to keep it between 30-50 Users per box. Deployment server (same specs as Citrix boxes) RS6000 Enterprise servers No - "Thick" clients 300 concurrent users (currently 30-50) User base is all over North America. Only the ActiveX console is published to the users. We have tested and will be deploying the following Citrix set-up by December. Nfuse website for user connectivity. Windows 2000 TS w/ Metaframe XPa. - This will be done on the exact same servers. This will also run with Visio for org charts and Office 2000. All our processing occurs on the Enterprise servers, so there is never that much processing on the Citrix servers. There is however a massive amount of RAM and Page File utilization. Depending on your set-up, it is better to get a lot of ram. We have one server that is only a Single Proc 500 Mhz with 2 GB of ram, and it can handle 30 consecutive users just fine.

Were scoping out the project using Win2k, MFXPa/Nfuse. Ill let you know if I have any more questions. Thanks again, Tony. -----Original Message----- From: Manley, Terry [mailto:manleyt@xxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, 16 October 2002 4:22 a.m. To: 'thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' Subject: [THIN] Re: JD Edwards on Terminal servers Tony, We're in the process of implementing OneWorld Xe. We have gone "live" with financials, factory data collection, and procurement at this time, with the rest scheduled for January. Let me give you a quick rundown of our setup and what we have seen so far. 6 server farm, NT4 WTS w/Metaframe 1.8 load balanced, Dual 1GHz w/2.25 GB memory Deployment server (same specs as Citrix boxes) AS400 Enterprise server (Central Objects on AS400) 15 "Thick" clients 250 concurrent users (currently 30-50) Majority of user base at this location, with some across US and worldwide. We only publish the OW application with Citrix auto creating the user's default printer. We have changed from the JDE default setup (W environments) which recommends special environment mappings so that very little will run on the client (in this case the Citrix servers). We run the Citrix clients the same as "Thick" clients, many business functions are mapped to run locally. Today's servers have adequate resources to handle this. At this point I am running one server dedicated to our development team to use for testing. They are able to log into the OW DV, and PY environments, with the remaining 5 servers load balanced with PY and PD environments. At any given time there are no more than 2 "Production" servers active. This makes it easier to apply updates and rotate the servers. I recently tested with only one server active and 40 users connected to see what the workload might be. The CPU usage was minimal and there was memory to spare. Of course, many of our current users are doing simple inquiry only and I'm sure that once our sales/order entry is on line, we will see higher usage of system resources. From talking with others, we are still planning to get 40-50 users per server. I hope this helps. Feel free to contact me directly if you have any specific OneWorld questions.
