Adding QVS server to cluster

[sharedservice_q]

Trying to add QVS server to use Qlik load balancing. 

We have one physical server (Pre-Existing node) 32 cores and here CPU affinity was showing 16 cores in the settings.

New Virtual Machine server (Trying to add the server) 24 cores and we are trying to match with physical server.

Any suggestions with the above approach.

It is necessary to understand the requirements for Clustering Qlikview Environment

There are three high-level requirements for building a clustered QlikView deployment:

• Clustered QlikView Server license key
• Shared storage area for Root folder
• Same build number

The help link does include  QVS Load Balancing Options

Are you trying to cluster nodes with different CPU cores? If so take a look at this help section.
