Setting up a Windows 2008 R2 Remote Desktop Services environment and I'm getting stuck on my server farm config.
RDC Broker is installed to a domain controller at 192.168.1.12
I have 3 RDSH servers I want to add to the farm using network load balancing. All 3 have that role installed as well as the NLB feature and dual NICS, the individual host IP's are 192.168.1.31, 32, 33 corresponding to node1, 2, 3.
NLB is setup, all 3 nodes are added and converged. I created a DNS A record for the cluster nlb.domain.local 192.168.1.40
On each cluster host I configured the TS farm as follows:
RD Connection Broker Settings:
Farm member
RD Connection Broker points to the DC above
Farm Name: TS-Farm...?
RD Connection Broker Properties window:
Settings listed above are on top....
Participate in Connection Broker Load-Balancing
Use IP address redirection
IP to use for redirection: Node1 192.168.1.31; Node2 192.168.1.32; Node3 192.168.1.33
My question, referenced above, what should I use as the farm IP address? Do I create three A records for ts-farm.domain.local, using the addresses of 192.168.1.31-33?
Do I point a ts-farm DNS entry to nlb.domain.local which is .40 my cluster IP?
I think that covers it all....thanks in advance!
**Edit**
DNS round robin is not an option in this setup. Thanks.
