Hi,
just like on terminal server, it is possible to limit memory usage (ram) per user ? if yes, how?
Thanks

Hello,
This is not possible and this feature is not on our roadmap, sorry for the bad news.

Re: Limit memory (ram) per user
ok thanks but your product is totaly on difficulties with this issue; for example when i add notepad on software list and that the user open multiple times this notepad, the ram is consumed quickly just by one user and other user can't logged in anymore.
i am sorry but i think that is a critical issue

Hi
I believe this is controlled by the OS so TSPlus would not be able to control this. In my case since I write the software people use on my server I limit the ram the application can use and that solved problems with users opening my applications multiple times.

Re: Limit memory (ram) per user
Simon,
On terminal server we can manage ram and cpu per user, is not OS which control this.
And nobody want change anything on the software shared; firstly because sometimes we dont have the source code (lol) and secondly because the main argument of tsplus is that we dont need change anything on a software to provide a "SAAS" software
My reflexion is simple : tsplus should thinking about multitasking and try to avoid all common problems on a multi-user environment).
Just limit amount of ram used per session (if ram allowed is reached, the next proccess is directly killed and logged) and same for cpu(on pourcentage of total cpu capacity).
This option should will be directly on tsplus product because its a "must to have".

Re: Limit memory (ram) per user
Hello,
I think you are refering to the good old days (2003/2008) where Microsoft did includes a valuable tool named
Windows System Resource Manager (WSRM)
Unfortunately, it does not exists anymore.
Even the msconfig whihc was so easy to use to disable startup processes has been removed.
As result on the current version of Windows (W10/W2016) it is more complicated to eliminate useless startup processes (scheduled tasks, startup tasks, and user based services).
This is why, in our latest releases of TSplus we added a nice new feature which enable to stop some of them: You will see it in the "Session Managment and Local Group Policy tile.
This is also why we decided to "Exit" from our logonsession.exe process each time it is possibly.
For the other users processes, each administrator has to study what is running at logon, why, and if this can be remoded without jeopadizing the user capability to run its application.
Kind regards
John

Re: Limit memory (ram) per user
WSRM is not compatible with win2016 or win10.
Study which and why a program is executed/used by the user is NOT enough : one very little exemple : ok we restrict all unwanted software but when a user open several times the SAME authorized software no limit on Windows...and all ram is consumed by one user
We need just a little service which controle logged user and process executed and when an user reach the lilit, the service stop the last process executed by the user and one alerte or log is send to administrator.
