LATCP$HELP.HLB  —  SET  NODE  Qualifiers  /CPU_RATING
       /CPU_RATING=cpu-power
       /NOCPU_RATING

    The /CPU_RATING qualifier assigns your local node a rating that
    represents the power of your node's CPU (central processing unit)
    relative to other CPUs in the LAN. The value of cpu-power can
    range from 1 (for a CPU with the lowest power) to 100 (for a CPU
    with the highest power).

    When a terminal server or node requests a connection to a service
    that is offered on the local node and one or more other service
    nodes, the requesting node selects the service node with the
    highest (most favorable) service rating, based on the overall
    level of activity of the node that offers the service and
    the amount of memory. This selection process is called load
    balancing.

    You can influence the rating for services on your node by
    specifying a value for the /CPU_RATING qualifier. If you specify
    a high value for cpu-power, the LAT driver will calculate a
    relatively high service rating for services on your node (service
    ratings as high as 255 are possible). If you specify a low value,
    the LAT driver will calculate relatively low service ratings;
    connections will most likely be made to the same service that
    is offered on other nodes. In either case, the LAT driver can
    calculate a greater range of values for dynamic service ratings
    (the entire range from 0 to 255). Consequently, the ratings will
    more accurately reflect the availability of the service node.

    If you do not specify either the /CPU_RATING=cpu-power or /NOCPU_
    RATING qualifier, the default is that no CPU rating will be used
    A value of 0 indicates no CPU rating.
