We are planning on switching 12 OneWorld FAT clients to a Citrix server.
All of these workstations solely do inquiry functions (such as customer
service inquiry, etc.)
Question #1 is: WHAT TYPE OF HARDWARE SHOULD WE GET FOR THE CITRIX
SERVER?
Some recommend the Xeon P3 dual processor. However, we also have been
searching out the 2.0Ghz P4 that has 400Mhz ram. I believe we can put
4GB of RAM on either motherboard. How far can you go before you get
into the mini-mainframe market?
Also, we have looked into uploading 3D cad network software, Solid-Edge
V10 (like AutoCad 2000), onto the Citrix server. Four engineers would
be running this software concurrently with 12 JDE OneWorld inquiry
workstations on the Citrix server.
Question #2 is: ARE WE ASKING FOR TROUBLE? Will everything on Citrix
slow down to a crawl?
