Since the number of concurrent users in this kind of installation exceeds what one Citrix server can handle, two Citrix servers must be used. To make things simple, half the users may be assigned to one Citrix server and the other half to the other. There is therefore no immediate need to use roaming profiles or load balancing.

 

The cadett ELSA server will be separated from those, and be very similar to a conventional cadett ELSA server.

 

The cadett ELSA server should have a large and extremely fast hard disk. At least 16 GB RAM and a powerful processor with at least two cores should be used.

 

For the Citrix servers, a stingy dimensioning would be 4 GB to start with and 4 GB RAM per concurrent user, giving 4 + 4 x 4 = 20 GB minimum for four users. A more generous dimensioning would be 8 GB to start with and 8 GB RAM per concurrent user, giving 8 + 4 x 8 = 40 GB RAM minimum for four users.

 

The processors for the Citrix servers should of course be of the most powerful kind, with at least two kernels per concurrent user, giving a minimum of eight kernels for four users.
