Deployment overview is set to "Per User", but Licencing Diagnoser says the server is in "Per Device" mode.

I'm in the midst of setting up a Server 2016 RDS deployment and as far as I can tell I have everything right, but I'm having a licencing issue. 

For now, until I know everything is set up correctly I have just 5 "per user" CALs installed. They installed without any errors. 

In the Deployment Properties the RD Licensing was set to "Per User". The licensing server listed is the correct one, and the 'per user' cals are installed on the correct server. 

However, when I run the "Licencing Diagnoser", it says that the server is in "Per Device" mode. 

Reinstalling the licences has not helped. I'm not sure what to do, I'd hate to have to re-do the whole deployment.

Can Server 2019 RDS use a 2016 RDS CAL

May 2, 2019, 12:27 pm

I have a Windows 2016 RDS license server with "Windows Server 2016 - Installed RDS Per User CAL" licenses installed on it.  I want to use this for Windows 2019 RDS connections.  Will 2019 use these CALs?  If not, what do I do?

1) Do I have to build a new server 2019 RDS license server and migrate my licenses?  Assuming the migrated licenses are backwards compatible with 2008R2, 2012R2, and 2016.

or

2) Can I use my existing 2016 RDS license server and "upgrade my existing" licenses?  Assuming the upgraded licenses are backwards compatible with 2008R2, 2012R2, and 2016.

or

3) Can I use my existing 2016 RDS license server and add NEW CALS that are specific for 2019.  Will that violate my license agreement because I now have double the licenses I own (x amount of the original and x amount added for 2019).

Thanks

Users CAL Pool for RDS

Hello,
I have a SPLA contract with RDS licenses per user. I have to declare 1 license each time a user logs on to the service.
I would like to know if I can do the following: declare a license pool for a specific AD group. For example: 10 users in an AD group with the right to 4 simultaneous licenses. I can create my 10 users, but declare a maximum of 4 licenses actually used per month.

Is it possible to do this via the RDS license manager and AD groups?

Thank you

I have setup a Windows RDS box on Server 2016 that runs in a VM. I've got The DDA (PCIe device passthrough) setup on a Nvidia P2000 gpu. 

To make the RDS server use the gpu instead of the CPU for video which group policies should I modify?

Thank you

Remote Procedure Call Failed and did not execute message while Explorer.exe is launched

HI,

We have an RD Server (2008R2) in production that is used by about 20-25 users on a daily basis. Recently, some of the users are getting this error when they try to lunch Explorer.exe from their desktop. "Remote procedure call failed and did not execute". And Explorer cannot be started.

Not all of the users are getting this message, only 1 user might have the problem while others don't seem to have any issues. The problem might go away after 10-15 minutes of waiting and explorer.exe can be launched again.

When this happened for the first time, I just restarted the server and we did not see the problem again for almost 2-3 weeks but here it comes again.

I'm running out of ideas and your helps will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Adding RD services to existing environment

April 26, 2019, 11:43 am

I'm looking an email hosting environment that wants to expand to also offer RDS to the existing email customers.  There is an existing AD environment already.  Each customer already has their own UPN domain that distinguishes them from each other customer. Theoretically, each customer would have their own segmented subnet that would contain an RD Session Host and file/application server that is managed by a central set of redundant RD Gateway and Connection Broker servers.  Group policies for things like folder redirection and computer lock down policies would have to work.  Of course no access from the individual customer subnets directly to the existing AD domain servers with all the user accounts would be wanted.  I can not decide if making a subdomain of the existing user accounts domain and joining customer servers to the subdomain or setting up a resource and authentication forest set up would be best.

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

RD Web Access Apps only displaying after hitting Show Details.

Hello,

We currently have a setup where we have a server with the web access and RD gateway roles installed.  They point back to a broker that has multiple applications defined that users can use through a browser (using the web access URL.)  The issue we are having is that the user will click the application, it will establish a connection, but hang until you click show details.  Once that has happened it will show the domain page and load the application.  Does anyone know how to make the application automatically display instead of having to click show details?

Thanks

Select Icons To Appear In Taskbar Doesn't Stay Selected Between Sessions - Possible UPD Issue

Every time I log into RDS, I have to re-"Select which icons appear on the taskbar" to have my notification shown in the system tray.  Every time.  I have UPD and Redirected Folders.  In User Profile Disks setup within the RDS setup, I chose "Store all user settings and data on the user profile disk".  Yet, it's not saving my selection of icons that I want displayed within my system tray upon logging off.  What do I need to do so that users don't have to keep re-selecting every time they log into RDS?  It seems to defeats the purpose of using UPD, i.e., is unable to roam properly.  Thank you!  -John Babbitt-

Hello support,

I have Windows 2012 R2 standard server as a RDS clients on it.  it runs an applications on it called ACT! and 7 users login to it to access the Act! program and their individual email outlook. There are three users that have Apple devices that use RDP client for Mac that access the server.  I want to close port 3389 and use Remote Web Access (via a ssl certificate) and using essential experience to access the server instead of RDP.  But when I go to browser (Safari) and put in the remote link.  https://remote.domain.com/remote,     I am able to log in and the remote client is downloaded and when I click on it, it wants to open it with an app and it cannot find and goes to App Store but all the programs there are greyed out or not available.  

The same process for iPad and iPhone. How can safely access the server?  I appreciate your help.

Office 365 Activation prompts on Server 2016 RDS Host

Platform

  • Server 2016 Session Host
  • Office 365 Pro Plus 2016

Hello

We successfully installed Office 2016 Prop Plus on to the session host some months ago. We have a random problem that has occurred twice now, where a user is prompted toactivate the product when they open a document first thing in the morning. The user can successfully activate the product by signing in. But if they close all products, they are promoted to  activate again when opening any of the products. The only way I could fix this for the first user a few months ago was to delete the profile  including the UPD.  The issue has begun again for anther user, and I'm trying to find a solution. There are other people having this issue out there in tech land, but with no firm answers that I can find. 

Many Thanks

Is it possible to change default rdp file for a specific published app on Remote Desktop Server 2016

Hey everyone,

I have a Remote Desktop 2016 Farm running published apps

The Windows 10 Clients inherit the dpi settings from the local computer to the published app that they execute, but that function does not work with Windows 7.

I know it is possible to change the default dpi and resolution settings from “rdweb\pages\Application Settings” for all published applications.

Does anyone know if it is possible to change screen or dpi resolution for a single published app?

Best regards
Carsten

Problem with mapping redirected client printers to server drivers at RDS Server 2016

April 25, 2019, 5:05 am

Hi,

I've problems with slow printing in our new RDS 2016 environment. The problem is related to the Easy Print driver which works but is very slow in most cases. I have set the policies to not use Easy Print driver first, so if a matching driver is found it works well. But since there are numerous of printers/drivers being used in our company I would like to avoid installing every single driver needed. In our old Citrix environment we map client printers with server drivers via a Citrix policy. But I have not been able to find anything like that for RDS 2016 except using a NTPrintSubs.inf file in C:\Windows\System32\TSPDRW\ folder. But I do not get that to work and I'm not sure is it is because I have configured it the wrong way or if it is not supported anymore. I have registered the registry REG_SZ keys PrinterMappingINFName (C:\Windows\System32\TSPDRW\NTPrintSubs.inf) and PrinterMappingINFSection (Printers) in HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\Wds\rdpwd. And I have entered information in the file like:

[Printers]

"HP LaserJet 4200 PS" = "HP LaserJet 4200 PS Class Driver"

Is this solution still supported and is there any detailed guide somewhere regarding exactly which steps is needed? Or is there any other way of resolve this issue?

Most grateful for any help

Windows Server 2016 RDSH Intermittent BSOD (DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE)

April 30, 2019, 7:17 am

Hi,

Not sure if this should be asked here or not. If I have submitted in error, please let me know and I will redirect my query elsewhere.

We have an RDS platform (single GW/CB/Lic server - Windows Server 2016, 3 RDSH servers - also Windows Server 2016). The platform is accessed using HP Thin Clients via the Gateway's RDWeb feed. The clients connect fine and all applications and hardware devices appear to work correctly.

However, intermittently (doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason that I can ascertain) one of the servers (it can be any of the three) will BSOD with a bugcheck of 0x0000009f (DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE). The server automatically reboots after a period of time and then works normally. Sometimes the BSOD happens only once, but then other times it will BSOD three or four times in a row shortly after coming up from the previous BSOD reboot.

From what I can gather, Windows is attempting (and failing) to instruct some device attached to the system (presumably via one of the remote sessions) to enter into a power saving mode and BSODs as a result. I have disabled USB power saving on the server but this does not resolve the issue. I have tested one of the RDSH servers by removing it from the connection pool and left it running without clients for a number of months and it has so far not given me any problems.

I took the MEMORY.DMP file (which is available for anyone to peruse upon request) and tried my best to analyse it using the tools available, and it seems to point to hidusb.sys, though I am unsure as to how to trace the problem any further.

All RDSH servers are patched with latest crticial/security patches as of a week ago.

Any possible thoughts as to avenues I could explore to diagnose/resolve this issue?

Thank you in advance for any advice you might be able to offer.

Hyperv enhanced session and RDP

I have a windows 10 computer and it has a hyperv windows 10 VM within it. When I try to log into the VM using enhanced session mode of HyperV, which requires RDP support, my logon is refused with the classic 'you need the right to sign in...".

I have verified the following:

The account I am using to logon is an administrator account and also has the User right 'allow logon on through terminal services'

Remote desktop connection is enabled through control panel system.

Firewall port for RDP is open and allows anyone in.

Is there something I have missed?

Thanks

Windows Server RDS Freezing with Flickering "Not Responding" in the top bar

We have around 15~ Remote Desktop Session Host servers of varying versions (2012 R2, 2016 and 2019) which are experiencing freezing and flickering issues with "Not Responding" appearing in the top bar and the program being unresponsive when switching between tabs. Other symptoms include screen flickering and, when in Task Manager, the tabs sometimes disappear until you roll the mouse over them. These issues started appearing after the weekend of 23rd March 2019 (23/03/19).

I have been scouring forums looking for other people with the same issue but can't find anyone with similar symptoms except someone called Chris_UKDE and his questions haven't been answered either.

At first, we thought that this was caused by a Windows Update but we have been through all of the updates and cannot find any consistent update or lack of update across the servers that seems to have caused the problem. We thought it might have been KB4489889 but after uninstalling this, the problem still remains.

We have opened a case with Microsoft and we are waiting for them to analyse some logs that they gathered on Friday and they have advised various registry fixes and disabling hardware acceleration but none of these have worked. I am taking to the forums to see if anyone else is a. having any luck with their diagnosis and b. having these issues at all(!) and c. if we manage to fix it, to share it with you so you don't have to experience the same pain we have.

The issue does NOT appear to happen in Safe Mode BUT when running a Selective Startup from MSConfig, these issues still happen, eluding that it's still a Microsoft element causing the problem. We are mainly seeing the problems in Microsoft Office programs but we do get a few issues in other Microsoft programs, such as Internet Explorer/Task Manager and also Chrome.

Most of the servers are running on VMWare ESXi 6.0-6.5 but we do have one native Windows Server with the problem. We have tried updating/uninstalling VMWare tools but this does not seem to fix anything. We also thought this might have been related to the video driver, so we booted the server with "Base Video" options in MSConfig but this still didn't fix the problems.

I am hoping that there are others in the same position as me, looking for an answer but having no forum to discuss it on, hence this post. Any advice greatly appreciated.

Hello,

Is there any documented approach to minimize the number of running VDIs?

I'd like to :

  1. Schedule starting the machines early in the morning.
  2. Schedule shutting down the machine after working hours.
  3. Allow the users to start their machine without admin support.

1 and 2 are easy, my concern is with 3. or any other recommended approach.

Thanks

RD Desktop Environment - Shared Applications

May 7, 2019, 3:39 am

We have two W2019 Servers running both with the Server RD Session Host role installed. Lets call them Server A and Server B.

  • Server A is used as a RD Desktop Environment
  • Server B is used for Shared Applications like Word, Excel etc.

Our idea is that the user does logon on Server A, accessing the Applications from Server B.

Basically this does work well however file type association seems not to be working in this environment. We are getting the following event on Server A:

Event ID: 1026

Source: RemoteApp and Desktop Connections

 "The installation of the default connection has been cancelled. A default connection cannot be used on a system that is part of a Remote Desktop Services deployment."

Default connection to webfeed.aspx has be configured via GPO and has been applied successful, file type association is configured for the shared Application also.

On Server A the file type association is not working so the user can not open a file from Windows Explorer directly.

As the Event Log Warning does it say really clear is it not possible to use shared Applications on a Desktop Environment with working file type association ?
