I have been looking for something like this. (TScale) But most products are to 
expensive.
 
Anyone know what TScale would cost? (200 users/4 servers)

LOL Brian, knows all about Tscale (he even wrote a paper for them so I hope 
so.... http://www.rtosoft.com/pages/whitepaper_ts_fbm.asp )
 
I tend to agree, Tscale will help him but he needs to find the source of the 
problem first in this situation and he did say that he does not want to use any 
clamping software at this time.

Hi Bernd,
 
We have been testing TScale on three of our MetaFrame farm servers (NT 4 TSE/MF 
1.8) in an effort to optimize performance on some non-TS aware/TS-friendly 
apps.  And TScale has been doing the job.
 
For the user experiencing the issue with the rogue applications; you may want 
to evaluate the TScale product.

One of your friends needs to consider TScale 3.0. Application Shaping will 
reduce the priority of those rogue applications. If there are too many of them 
to name them each individually, you can create an *.* rule that catches any 
application that goes above X% CPU for N seconds.

Hello All,
 
One of my friends has a MetaFrame server where "random" processes consume 100% 
of the CPU utilization. When this happens, the system (of course) becomes very 
unresponsive. You can right-click and kill it via task manager, and everything 
is fine.
 
The weird thing is (and what's throwing me for a loop) is that one day it's 
ntvdm.exe, the next day it's outlook.exe, etc.. different apps, different 
users, different sessions, same server, same problem, same resolution.
 
MetaFrame XP, W2k, Office 2k.
 
I don't want to use any kind of clamping software because I'd like find the 
real cause.
 
Any ideas? This guy has three servers, and it only happens on one of them. I'm 
keen to call it a "hardware" problem. :-)
 
Brian
