On-premises gateway configuration
Hi， Anonymous
According to my understanding, when you configure two gateways as a cluster, you can indeed set the throttling limits to 100 on one gateway. Load balancing is to randomly send requests to your gateway. If one of your gateways exceeds 100% (and you configure throttling limits to 100), then subsequent requests will go to another gateway by default instead of going to Your CPU takes up a lot of gateways. My understanding is that it can be configured according to your actual CPU usage, such as 80-100.

Hello v-yueyunzh-msft ,
Thank you for your reply! I will try your recommendation for my second question, and also thank you for explaining about the configuration. However, I am asking about the best throttling limits for each parameter because it mentioned that we can set our own limits between 0-100.
For example, if we set the number for CPU Utilization to 100, then it means that it will throttle the refreshing on the server when the % CPU Utilization gets to 100%. I read somewhere that if we activate the load balancing with 2 gateway members for example, it is best to set the throttling limits to 100 on one gateway. But I only found one source for this and wanted to confirm if this is also supported by others.
