Load balance to specific node

Hi I have 2 servers. one with central node and another server created a rim node. RIM node is running fine. Now I have few Apps and user etc. How to  separate the load based on 2 server.  can you suggest.

Take a look at this help section,

Yes. I tried with this link. But not sure about this point. Point no. 8 

Select a resource condition in the drop-down lists.

For example, selecting the resource condition name and setting name = MyApp, means that the rule applies to the app named MyApp while setting name = MyApp*, will apply the rule to all apps with names beginning with MyApp.

Once I created how to check this?

Quick Question, For load balancing is it mandatory to create virtual proxies?

Hello @balajibc64 ,

No, you do not need different Virtual Proxies. Also on the virtual proxy you need to add the different engines to have a proper load balancing. If you only have 1 engine, then it won't work much.

Also is important you take into account the nodes resources, sometimes the central node is limited on RAM and you only want the RIM node to open apps for the end users.

So, there is various considerations to be made.

@Albert_Candelario ok thanks. I installed the rim and central node. Also I pointed one of the app to RIM node. Now how to check whether my load is going to RIM node or not?

Hello @balajibc64 ,

Either you could use the monitoring apps or another option could be:

Also, inspecting the logs you could see where the app is open.
