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. (Click the Exhibit)
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:
To control the distribution of user requests made to Server1 and Server2 in such a way that the administrators would be able to distribute the traffic based on the server hardware, you need to use TS Session Broker Load Balancing and assign a weight value of 100 to Server1 and a weight value of 200 to Server2.
Terminal Services Session Broker (TS Session Broker) is a role service in the Windows Server® 2008 operating system that enables you to load balance sessions between terminal servers in a farm, and allows a user to reconnect to an existing session in a load-balanced terminal server farm.
The TS Session Broker Load Balancing feature also enables you to assign a relative weight value to each server. By assigning a relative weight value, you can help to distribute the load between more powerful and less powerful servers in the farm. By default, the server weight value is 100. The server weight is relative. Therefore, if you assign one server a value of 100, and one a value of 200, the server with a relative weight of 200 will receive twice the number of sessions.
