Your network consists of one Active Directory domain. Your company has an intranet. You deploy Terminal Services terminal servers that run Windows
Server 2008.
You plan to make applications available to users on the intranet.
You need to recommend a solution to ensure that each user session receives an equal share of the CPU resources on the terminal servers.
What should you recommend?
A. Install and configure the Network Load Balancing feature on all terminal servers.
B. Install and configure the Terminal Services server role with the Terminal Services Session Broker (TS Session Broker) services role on all terminal servers.
C. Install the Windows System Resource Manager (WSRM) feature on all terminal servers. Set the resource-allocation policy.
D. Install the Network Policy and Access Services (NPAS) server role on another server. Define and apply a new policy by using Network Policy Server (NPS).
Correct Answer: C
Explanation/Reference:
You can use Windows System Resource Manager to allocate processor and memory resources to applications, users, Remote Desktop Services sessions, and Internet Information Services (IIS) application pools.
With Windows System Resource Manager for the Windows Server® 2008 R2 operating system, you can manage server processor and memory usage with standard or custom resource policies. Managing your resources can help ensure that all the services provided by a single server are available on an equal basis or that your resources will always be available to high-priority applications, services, or users.
Windows System Resource Manager only manages processor resources when the combined processor load is greater than 70 percent. This means that it does not actively limit the resources that can be used by each consumer when processor load is low. When there is contention for processor resources, resource allocation policies help ensure minimum resource availability based on the management profile that you define.
