Load Balancer and session resuming

[david.lyon]

Hi there,

My organisation has a Windows Server 2003 cluster of 4 terminal servers, load balanced by 2x software.

Originally we had 3 servers set up, with 2x configured to allow people to resume previous sessions if they closed the session window or lost connection. This worked fine.

In the past few months, we've added an additional server with an identical hardware and software configuration to the other 3. For some reason, this single server does not allow resuming of connections. The other 3 still do, but if a user is put onto the new one, and loses connection, they will be treated as a new user the next time they login and will end up having a second session on the least loaded server. If by chance the new server is least loaded, the connection will resume. Otherwise, it's a new session on another server.

Has anyone encountered this before?

never heard of this nor seen it on the forums before + i have added extra ts's to my network and haven't had this happening to us.
the ts's are they all the same/clone or something similar? u sure the new one doesn't have something extra that the others don't?
fyi i remember having issues with symantec endpoint in the pasts, it was messing it up big times...
are the end users that are having these issue all the same? are they using the 2xclient though?
have u tried session directory?

I hope this helps..
