Whats the best Firebird configuration for Citrix server?
It you wish to use Firebird via Terminal Server, here are some useful tips: * don’t put Firebird on the same machine that is acting as a Terminal Server, especially if you need to handle many terminal sessions. Terminal server itself is CPU and memory intensive. Using a single machine is not scalable and you’d also have a single point of failure. * if all your clients access the same database, you must use a single Firebird Server to serve all of them. It’s best to dedicate one machine just for that. You can have multiple Citrix boxes accessing a single Firebird server. * avoid the “local” access, which won’t work, and use TCP/IP even if the Firebird server runs on the same machine (i.e. localhost:c:\path\to\database.fdb). * while it works with SuperServer, Classic is much more scalable. It can support more concurrent users and has better utilisation of RAM. Super server is a single process and allocates memory for all its clients. When number of clients grows it might reach the limit
