While our Kemps (four LM-2200's) are physical and not virtual appliances, they have been virtually trouble free since we've had them in service (June 2011). Also have a couple Kemp GLM's since March 1 of this year - trouble free as well.

Which virtual appliance load balancers are on your recommended list? Only one I have first hand experience with is F5. damien.solodow -------- Original message -------- From: "Michael B.

You can set it up, but as soon as you try to take a server out of the load balanced array, Zen would crash. Adding servers required restarting Zen. Adding a port mapping required restarting Zen. And, last but not least, I couldn't get a HA set up to work at all. Now - this was about a year ago, and it may have improved. But it isn't on my "recommended" list.

Trying to help set up a Zen load balancer for CAS and having some odd issues at a very early stage. Plus their documentation is *really* sparse on the subject; and the information on Zen isn't strong to start with.
