Your network consists of one Active Directory forest.
You have two servers named Server1 and Server2. Both servers run Windows Server 2008. All client computers run Windows Vista.
Hardware on the servers is installed as shown in the following table:
Client computers use the Remote Desktop client to connect to Server1 and Server2.
You need to recommend a solution to control the distribution of user requests made to Server1 and Server2. The solution must enable administrators to distribute the traffic based on the server hardware.
What should you recommend?
A. Use DNS round-robin. Set the DoNotRoundRobinTypes registry entry to ptr srv ns.
B. Add the failover clustering feature. Configure Server1 as a passive node and Server2 as an active node.
C. Install Network Load Balancing. In Host Parameters, set Priority to 1 for Server2 and set Priority to 2 for Server1.
D. Use Terminal Services Session Broker (TS Session Broker) Load Balancing. Assign a weight value of 100 to Server1 and a weight value of 200 to Server2.
Correct Answer: D
Explanation/Reference:
100 & 200
Relative weight of this server in the farm box, modify the server weight. By default, the value is 100. The server weight is relative. Therefore, if you assign one server a value of 50, and one a value of 100, the server with a weight of 50 will receive half the number of sessions.
TS Session Broker load balancing
This policy setting allows you to specify whether to use the TS Session Broker load balancing feature to balance the load between servers in a terminal server farm.
If you enable this policy setting, TS Session Broker redirects users who do not have an existing session to the terminal server in the farm with the fewest sessions. Redirection behavior for users with existing sessions is not affected. If the server is configured to use TS Session Broker, users who have an existing session are redirected to the terminal server where their session exists.
If you disable this policy setting, users who do not have an existing session log on to the first terminal server to which they connect.
If you do not configure this policy setting, you can configure the terminal server to participate in TS Session Broker load balancing by using the Terminal Services Configuration tool or the Terminal Services WMI provider.
