Load Balancer for View Horizon 5.3

Hi,

I would like to know if you use a load balancer for your view connection servers 5.3 (or more) and wich one and for how many users ?

I'm interested for a free/open source solution or a cheap one Smiley Wink

Is HA Proxy works fine with View 5.3 and 6.x ? Is Kemp free or Zen Community would be good enough for 600 users ?

Thanks for your help

We use the Kemp VLM for 600 users + and  its perfect for our needs.

Its not free.

We're using Citrix NetScaler VPX 200 for ~350 (max) concurrent sessions in a HA pair configuration.  We started our environment in View 5.3 with it and continue using with 6.2.2.  Citrix also makes a free version called VPX Express that may be worth checking out.
