My Server >> Load Balancer Settings

In HC Load Balancer there are two available options:

1.      Automatic

2.      Manual

Load Balancing settings are configurable at “Host Level” and “Reseller Level”. By default these are set on Automatic.

Automatic: Select to activate automatic load balancing functionality.

If this option is selected, HC distributes load evenly across two or more servers in order to get optimal resource utilization, maximize throughput, minimize response time, and avoid overload. Load balancing decision is made by HC on the basis of quantity. New resources (i-e website/mail/DB/DNS) are created on the server having less number of existing resources compare to other servers within cluster.

HC Load Balancer works as Round Robin Load Balancing, only if all users are set on Automatic Load Balancer.

Manual: Select to activate manual handling of load balancer.

If this mode is selected, while adding any website, mail domain, database, SharePoint Site, OCS Site or Dynamics CRM Site, it shows a combo box having all the servers with their respective roles. This combo box allows server selection where Domain/DNS/Mail/Database to be created.

User Name: Select users as required. The specified settings are applied to the selected users.

Save Settings: Select to apply specified modifications.
