and... even if you requested an application which is hosted only on a server in another zone, I am guessing that in this scenario, it would be your primary zone's ZDC that would be the one to do the job of querying the ZDC of the other zone for the least loaded server?? -----Original Message----- From: thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Lilley, Brian Sent: 22 July 2004 14:00 To: 'thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' Subject: [THIN] configuring load balancing xml servers in the web interface hi all, I have a question on the 'Load balancing between servers running the Citrix XML Service'... Presumeably, you would want the web interface to always contact the ZDC, because this is the box that any other XML service would have to contact anyway in order to find the least loaded server. you would want a number of servers in the list of XML servers available, in order to failover to in the advent that the one you are pointing at dies...but really....what is the point of load balancing between a number if servers, if they all have to go to one point anyway?? even if my primary zdc failed, this argument would still hold true for the secondary ZDC?? am I missing the point here? ============================================================================== This message is for the sole use of the intended recipient.
