Using Load Manager

With Load Manager, an administrator can set up, monitor, and adjust server and
published application loads in a server farm so that users can run the applications
they need quickly and efficiently.

When a user connects to a published application that is load balanced with Load
Manager, Load Manager identifies the server with the lightest load for that
application. The user is not aware of load balancing; load calculations are not
communicated to the user in any way.

You manage and monitor server and user loads using Presentation Server Console.
You can set unique methods for calculating server loads by adjusting the rules
settings in load evaluators.
