No. Load Manager doesn't really use Resource Manager Metrics. Keep in mind that Resource Metrics are nothing more than Perfmon Counters. And, Load Manager uses PerfMon Counters to compute the current load of the server. What hardware is on the new server and in your existing servers? It just might be that the Load Evaluator you have is computing a lower average load than your existing servers. Also, could you reply back with the output from QFARM /LOAD? Feel free to change the server names to fake server names.

We have a custom load evaluator that looks at processor and memory utilization. We recently added a server to the mix and load balanced it with our evaluator. Load balancing was not working. Nfuse was sending most of the users to this new box. It ended up taking on 80 users. We also noticed that Resource Manager only had a couple of metrics added for this server. Does the load balancer use Resource Monitor metrics to determine the load of the machine? Since the metrics were missing perhaps it thought the machine had no load and that is why it sent all the users to this machine. Thoughts? ******************************************************** This weeks sponsor Emergent Online. Emergent OnLine is the leading server-based computing consulting integration firm in the nation.
