Virtual Terminal Server
Virtual terminal servers share many similarities to virtual clients. They are both
virtual machines running a Windows operating system and are connected through a
thin client over the network. The main difference in the terminal server solution is
that multiple users login to the same terminal server which is running Windows
Server 2008 R2 instead of Windows 7. For the virtual terminal server, 800xA is
installed into a virtual machine using the same method as a physical terminal server.
As there are more concurrent users in the virtual terminal servers, the virtual
machine where the virtual terminal server resides requires more virtual CPU and
RAM allocated.
Figure 49 shows a comparison between a physical terminal server solution and a
virtual terminal server solution.
Whilst the diagram shows that the virtual terminal servers are added as additional
800xA virtual nodes in the existing virtual hosts, depending on the number of
users and loading in the virtual terminal server, the virtual terminal servers may
need to be moved to additional virtual hosts.
