RE: [servman] SCSM Console

2014-04-21 Thread Mears, Mark
It might depend on the number of people that are using or are planning to be 
using the console.  If you only have a very few (under 5) you could get by with 
a single console.  If you have or are planning to have more console connections 
than that then you might want to consider an additional Management Server that 
can be used to handle the connections.

Alternatively, Cireson makes a web-based console based on http that is an 
excellent choice for larger numbers of client connections.  You can check out 
all of their SCSM add-on products herehttp://www.cireson.com/app-store/.

Since the console is installed by default on the Management Server, having an 
additional console gives another benefit.  The Management Server can be 
leveraged to place all of the Management Packs and zero connections, while the 
additional console can be used for all of the connections.  Having the console 
on the alternate server reduces the load on the Management Server thus leaving 
more resources to the Management Server for running workflows, etc.

On the downside , sometimes these two servers fall out of sync and then the 
Management Health Service requires a restart on both.  That is not a frequent 
occurrence however.

Citrix  XenApp uses RDS in the background. It just gives some enhanced features.

Pro’s:
You only install the console in one place (the XenApp or RDS servers)

Con’s
You need a lot of memory assigned to those, since the console uses a lot.
