Configuring Load Evaluators
For SecureLogin to run effectively on a Citrix server, configure load evaluators for page faults and page swaps. Do this before installing SecureLogin.
If the server drops client connections when SecureLogin is running on the Citrix server, try increasing the number of page fault allowed on your load balancer template. The drops happen because SecureLogin tries to minimize memory usage.
The following instructions apply to Citrix Metaframe XP Feature Release (FR).
To create the new Load Evaluators:
-
Start Citrix Management Console.
-
Select Load Evaluators from the farm hierarchy.
-
Right-click to display the option menu.
-
Select New Load Evaluator.
-
In the Name edit box, type a name for the Load Evaluator.
-
In the Description edit box, type a description for the new evaluator.
-
Select Page Faults from the Available Rules list, then click Add.
-
Select Page Swaps from the Available Rules list, then click Add.
-
Select Page Faults in the Assigned Rules list.
-
In the Rule Settings edit boxes, type a value for each Page Fault setting.
Settings are configured in the Rule Settings pane.
-
Select Page Swaps in the Assigned Rules list.
Page Swap settings display in the Rule Settings section.
-
In the Report Full Load When the Number of Page Swaps per Second is Greater Than This Value edit box, type a value.
-
In the Report No Load When the Number of Page Swaps Per Second is Less Than or Equal to This Value edit box, type a value.
-
Click OK.
The required Load Evaluators have been created.
Next, they are loaded to the Citrix server that SecureLogin will be installed on.
-
From the Citrix Management Console, expand the Servers option in the farm hierarchy.
Names of Citrix servers are displayed.

Right-click the relevant Citrix server name.
