pool-send-wlb-configuration

Modifies Workload Balancing configuration settings, including thresholds, Workload Balancing power- management settings, and weightings. It is not mandatory to configure all settings with the command. You can configure only some parameters, but not all, if desired.

Before using the pool-send-wlb-configuration command, learn about the default values on your system by running pool-retrieve-wlb-configuration.

When you run the pool-retrieve-wlb-configuration command, additional parameters appear that are not documented in this section. Citrix does not recommend editing these parameters.
