Note: At this time, SeamlessRDP are not supported by Windows Server 2012 and Windows Server
2012 R2.
3.2.3. Server Sizing
The amount of computer resources needed to run a ThinLinc cluster varies greatly with the number of
users, the type of hardware used for the servers, the application mix run by the users and the type of
users. Trying to estimate the number of servers needed for a specific cluster is not something that can be
done using a predefined table of facts. Instead decisions should be made based on benchmarks and
experience.
Below, we will try to give some ideas on what kind of resources are needed based on customer
experience. With time and experience from your own cluster with your own application set, you will
work out your own set of figures.
It is important to remember that the ThinLinc load balancing feature makes it easy to add another server
when the need arises. Start out with a number of servers and add more as the load increases.
3.2.3.1. Types of Resources
There are several types of resources needed in a ThinLinc cluster.
• Disk
About 100MiB of disk is needed for the software and data being part of ThinLinc. Each active session
also requires a very small amount of data (normally less than 100KiB) for storage of session data and
the session log. In addition to that, there must be disk available for the operating system, the
applications users run and logs.
• CPU
The amount of CPU is very hard to estimate as it depends completely on the set of applications run by
the users, and also on how active the users are as well as which response times are accepted by the
users. A server that without problem copes with 100 users running LibreOffice calc updating a
