Subject:  NetView Clients and X sessions





I was wondering if some of the Tivoli folks could lend their advice on the
following situation.

We have a need to have many ovw sessions running at the same time.  The
exact number seems to grow as we go along, so I was wondering what you
thought the impact of the following scenario would be.

What if we had a series of NetView Client machines, and operators would
open X sessions to those?  What would the overall impact on the server be
for each operator in relation to if they opened an X session directly to
the server?

If we wanted 20 ovw sessions, and spread them out over 4 clients, would the
load on the server resemble that of 4 ovw clients, 20 ovw sessions, or some
number in between?

Has anyone tried anything like this in there environment?
