Limitations of Siebel's Delivered Load-balancer

[Dave Augustus]

Hello All,

We are implementing Seibel CRM. It has front-end servers that connect to
application servers. The front-end servers use some type load-balancer
provided out of the box. They also support configurations with 3rd party
load-balancers like Cisco and F5.

Here are the limitations with Seibel's Load Balancer that LVS with MON
can mostly solve:

- a web extension(something in IIS, Network load balancing?, unsure what
this is)
- round robin only
- no active checks
- all servers must be equal in size and capacity

Thanks,
Dave Augustus
