about TS/SBC).

The tool allows you to simulate load on your Terminal Servers so you can check things like ‘How many sessions can my server handle with acceptable performance?’ and so on. Sounds cool right?

Well there are a couple problems with the tool but depending on your requirements/needs it may do the trick.

First of all, it does not run on 2003. You must have a 2008 TS. Secondly, there is no way to record a script what means you must manually create one that will look like this:

‘// global settings
VK_RETURN   = 13
VK_LWIN     = 91
WINDOW_EVENT   = 1
MENU_EVENT     = 2
OBJECTSHOW_EVENT = 3
OBJECTFOCUS_EVENT = 4
VKeyFlag = 1
AltFlag = 2
CtrlFlag = 4
ShiftFlag = 8
Server = “TestServer”
User = “smc001″
Password = “Password123″
Domain = “TestServer”

‘// instantiate the RUIDCOM object
Set RUIDCOM = CreateObject (”RUIDCOM.RUI”)

‘// set connection properties
RUIDCOM.DesktopWidth = 800
RUIDCOM.DesktopHeight = 600
RUIDCOM.DesktopBpp = 16
RUIDCOM.TypingRate = 300

‘// Connect to Server
RUIDCOM.TSConnect Server, User, Password, Domain
WScript.Sleep (5000)

‘// open and wait for run dialog
RUIDCOM.VKeyDown VK_LWIN
RUIDCOM.PressKeyAndWaitForEvent “Open Run Dialog”, asc(”r”), 0, “Run”, OBJECTSHOW_EVENT
RUIDCOM.VKeyUp VK_LWIN
WScript.Sleep (2000)

‘// start notepad
RUIDCOM.SendKey “notepad.exe”
RUIDCOM.PressKeyAndWaitForEvent “Open Notepad”, VK_RETURN, VKeyFlag, “Untitled - Notepad”, WINDOW_EVENT
WScript.Sleep (2000)

RUIDCOM.SendKey “some text”

WScript.Sleep (2000)

‘// save file
RUIDCOM.PressKeyAndWaitForEvent “Open File Menu”, asc(”f”), AltFlag, “File”, MENU_EVENT
WScript.Sleep (2000)
RUIDCOM.PressKeyAndWaitForEvent “Open Save As Dialog”, asc(”s”), 0, “Save as”, OBJECTSHOW_EVENT
WScript.Sleep (2000)
RUIDCOM.SendKey “sample.txt”
RUIDCOM.PressKeyAndWaitForEvent “Confirm Save as”, VK_RETURN, VKeyFlag, “Confirm Save”, OBJECTSHOW_EVENT
WScript.Sleep (2000)
RUIDCOM.SendKey “y”

This is no show stopper and I am not going to say you cannot learn how to script but IMHO this is far from user friendly. I will probably write a nice GUI to record whatever you are doing and then save as a script to save people time (what Microsoft could have done for sure). But I guess you get what you paid for.
