I am receiving this error when recreating my virtual machines:
"The request to create the virtual desktops in 'my collection name' failed with the following errors:
Could not export the virtual desktop template 'template name'. Exception of type 'Microsoft.RemoteDesktopServices.Common.RDManagementException' was thrown."
Does anyone have an idea? any help will be much appreciated.
Kind Regards.

Hi
All applications I publish for RemoteApp on Windows Server 2016 gets "Current directory" set to "C:\Windows\system32\", no matter where I have the application (only tried with applications stored on C:\ fyi)
This is the environment-settings all applications I've published on a Server 2016 gets (besides the command line ofc).
My current solution is to use a cmd-script to enter the correct directory and then start it and just publish the .cmd-script.
Parent PID:10376Hello
I am running a Server 2016 based RDS deployment. I have created a virtual desktop collection with Gen2 VM as the master image.
The collection will deploy initially with no issues at all and work as it is expected to do.
However, when I attempt to recreate all desktops due to updates etc, the job will fail with the following error reported in Server Manager:
Failed: Task: Calling into Hyper-V: failed. Result of task [0x80004005]
Looking in the event logs on the CB I am able to find this message under Microsoft-Windows-TerminalServices-SessionBroker/Admin:
VM host [host.name] failed to execute VM Provisioning operation [Task: Calling into Hyper-V: ] for virtual machine [Gen-0] in pool [Gen_2_Test], Error: [Unspecified error ]
If I look in the VMMS event log on the actual Hyper-V host itself I can find this message:
However, the machine is still there and booted? However it will stop the rest of the recreations so a collection with more than one vm will not finish.
Any pointers would be really appreciated I've Googled everything, tried with/without checkpoints, with/without the machines started at the time of recreation, with/without secure boot and nothing works. All that works, is regeneration with a Gen1 VM
Please help :)

Hi,
I've got a customer with three licensing servers... WS2003, WS2008 and WS2012.
Recently they bought 20 CAL per device 2016 licenses. During activation proccess there was a mistake and those CAL where installed on WS2003 Licensing Server, instead of WS2008 server...
I've been trying to talk with Clearing House and tech support to remove those licenses from WS2003 licensing server... And no one knew how to do it...
The only solution they gave to me was migrating licenses from WS2003 to WS2008, but I guess that proccess migrates all the licenses, and you need to deactivate WS2003 server... That's not an option to this client....
Can anyone provide me some help?
Thank you very much, and sorry for my english...
Greetings,
this is a general question. I have a windows server 2012, running weblogic server on it. It is logged in as administrator and the weblogic application is running on the back. I want to give access to a user, to logged in with remote connection and the session will show 2 applications. The purpose of this is, i want a non administrator user, to be able to execute stop-server.ps1 which is terminating my weblogic server, and start-server.ps1 which is starting my weblogic server. Some times the weblogic server needs to be stopped (not forcefully, that's why i have a script for that), and start again since i will not always be able to do it my self. The user should not be able to interact with the server, but only execute this 2 scripts. How can this be achieved?
Thanks in Advanced for your help.
Our scenario is mac based and we use remote desktop to use windows applications we can't run on them.
There's one problem with printers though, no one is able to set their own user specific default printer.
You set the default and everything is working fine, till you log off then back on.. what will happen is the printer default is the first printer but then their printer has duplicates installations of it, you can tell this when you right click the printer
and it asks which printer you want to change i.e.
>samsung 1234
>samsung 1234
>samsung 1234
I then have to delete their local profile and get them to log back in again for it to go back to normal, their printer is then default without multiple installations of the same printer, till they log out and back in.
I have even recreated their profile and given them a new one but it's still the same issue.
Any ideas? GPO is not set for any defaults etc
Might be worth mentioning that we have two servers for active directory logins of rds1 and rds2, it will split the users onto both servers to share the load. If one person is logged into rds1 then the server will redirect them to rds2. We have to delete both profiles on both servers, is there a link issue here because of the two profiles?
Hi,
I noticed that w2016 RDSSH (virtual machine non-hyper-v) will uses twice as much cpu than w2008 r2 when rendering video. That's a big disappointement.
There is a RemoteFX GPO for W2008 R2 to set frame rate and video quality. I had set for a fluid video rendering (i.e. High frame rate and medium video quality). Watching videos is not at all the main purpose of my servers and the service is fair enough w/
w2008 r2.
Is there a similare setup for W2016 ? Or any other tweak to get fluid video and low cpu ? (Network bandwidth is not a problem. All clients are 100Mb/full)
Hello
I'm using Windows server 2012 R2 standard, the server is located on an ESXI 6.0.
I did a migration of SBS2008 to Windows Server 2012 with this manual https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/canitpro/2014/05/27/step-by-step-active-directory-migration-from-windows-server-2008-r2-to-windows-server-2012-r2/
I'm able to setup a PPTP VPN connection to the new server. I'm able to ping to the new server and to the old server aswell, when I'm connected via VPN. But when I want to go to the shares it doesn't work. (Can't find server on IP address) Also the remote desktop doesn't work via VPN.
I'm able to connect to the old server via RDP and file shares are reachable. I already disabled firewall and endpoint security, still that doesn't seem to resolve the problem.
[Edit]
I narrowed my problem down to the following:
I tracert to the server over the VPN and i get 2 replies:
Tracing route to 172.16.0.251 over a maximum of 30 hops
When I try to RDP to .251 it doesn't work over VPN, but when I try to RDP to the .117 it does work. And that is the new RDP server.
In other words it is possible to make a RDP connection to the internal interface (the one I see in Routing and remote access), but it doesn't work to the Ethernet0 (with IP address .251)
RDP to the old server works over VPN. But I think the problem is something with the Routing and Remote Access, but I got no idea how to solve it.
If there are other things you need, just ask
Thanks for the feedback
Kind regards
I have a 2008 R2 server that has been running for years. I can RDP into this server and have Terminal Services running nad have 5 people who RDP into this server everyday without any problems. Lets call this server A
I am trying to connect from this server to another remote server called B. But RDP does not work. It will try to connect for about a minute and then return an error saying "try connecting again, if the problem continues, contact the owner of the remote computer .... ".
I then tried to connect via RDP to various other servers, say C, D and E, but no outgoing RDP connection is established. Whereas these remote servers are working because form my laptop, or any other machine in the office (behind the same firewall / router, using the same IP), I can easily RDP into machine B,C,D or E. So there is nothing blocking outgoing connection on my office router/firewall and the remote machines have no issues accepting incoming RDP connections.
I turned OFF windows firewall for all (domain, public, private) but nothing. The server is a standalone and not part of a domain.
So the only problem is that I cannot make outbound RDP connections from this server 2008, whereas I can easily establish incoming (connect to this server) via RDP.
Does anyone have any suggestions how I can fix this?
Thanks
I'm trying to reproduce an error we get when a user tries to connect to a non-persistent VDI pool. Sometimes, the user will be denied access to a virtual machine in the pool and the following error gets logged:
The user "DOMAIN\user", on client computer "172.21.1.131", did not meet resource authorization policy requirements and was therefore not authorized to resource "172.18.36.70". The following error occurred: "23002".
The client computer IP is a Threat Management Gateway (TMG) and the resource IP is from a DHCP pool.Both the CAP and RAP at the RD Gateway are custom and have all the necessary settings.
My first assumptions are that there is a gap between the time a VM gets a new DHCP lease and gets registered in the DNS and the refresh from the RD Broker database, but I might be wrong. The DHCP time lease for that scope is 5 hours.
Would anybody have a good knowledge of how the different components of an RDS farm works or, better yet, could explain why the user gets this error, but not every time..
Thanks
Hi Techies,
I am working on solution, where i am stuck. Please help me
The requirement is there are two windows 2008 r2 Terminal servers, and both server c drive space is 300 GB.
There are 300 users log in everyday for their routing work.
Now C drive is getting full, as we can see there are many users folders are in c:\users\ folder and we are clearing users profile from c: users\leftuser folder or any thing which is not required under users profiles.
We have mapped the profile from remove desktop service profiles for all the users. Given shared Profile folders so that any server they log in, they should get profile correctly.
But even we have mapped the path in AD, in c driver c:\users\ folders are getting created.
Is this functionality is by default by Windows, or there is alternate way to move these folders to different drive as my c drive is getting full or user profile should not get created on c:\users folder, as we have mapped in AD profile.
If we can move then whether on production server we can make these changes
Question is even remove service profile set. and when you login to terminal server it will create user profile under c:\users folder and get sync with remote service profile path.
I do not want user folder to be created under c:\users folder when i have remote service profile path set.

As the title indicates...I'm curious about the capabilities of RDG. Here is my hypothetical situation:
Let's say I have an existing 2012 R2 RDS deployment (including Gateway) that is functioning as MS intends. Certificates are all in place, etc. etc. etc. Clients have no problem accessing RDSH sessions, RemoteApps, etc. The setup is essentially totally "vanilla". Life is good.
Now...I have a new system to put in place which relies on the RDS stack. The new system requires that a plugin be installed in Connection Broker which modifies default load balancing behavior. I would prefer to not install this into my current RDS stack that's working so beautifully. But I'd also rather not have to deploy a second RD Gateway, etc.
So, is there a *supported* way to utilize my existing RD Gateway to route incoming client sessions to both the existing RDS setup and a "new" RDS setup (presumably consisting only of RDSH servers, a connection broker and RD Web)? FWIW I have looked for docs from MS that speak to this but can't find any.
I want to know using windows TS, what can be the max # of simultaneous session supported by a single TS.
I have a solution which is sized by TS, 5000$ for a single TS, with 2100 users and standard support to be 50 / TS I would require 42. That would be too costly.
I want to know using a high performance machine with xeon server 32 GB RAM would make any difference?
Hi,
I am dealing with IT architecture design aspects for a 2D application operated typically with RDP sessions
That application does heavy directdraw activity and we've seen that drawing a simple picture with MFC DC.paint methods takes 1200 ms with Windows 2008R2 RDP session and 3000 ms with 2012 R2 RDP session.
Higher level tests show a heavy dependency on screen size too... 1024x768 does not cause any issue at all when moving, zooming or drag&drop of some graphical objects. Here we can measure it with a generic picture that the virtual graphic card of terminal services in Server 2012 R2 is slower... compared with Server 2008R2 SP1. But the usability on "small screens" were not complained.
However users have also 21:9 screens with the dimensions 2580x1048 and there is heavy lag when zooming into a picture or draw a new one. It is not color depth degradation - the virtual screen size is 32 MB by default and the screen would require only 11 MB.
So what else could I check?
IT architect - Terminal servers, virtualizations, SQL servers, file servers, WAN networks and closely related to software devleopment (8 years + experience in VB, C++ and script langugaes), MCP for SQL server and CCAA for Xenapp 6.5

Hey I wonder if somebody can help me answer a bit of a conundrum!
We use a number of Windows based RDS jumpboxes to manage various parts of our network. However we also use an RDS environment for our day-to-day business operations. So to connect to a jumpbox we would log onto our PC, then connect the primary business RDS environment (which is where we can access files, Outlook etc.) which is fully licenced with per-user RDS CALs and then from there we RDS to one of the jumpboxes if we need to manage that part of the network. These remote jumpboxes, for various reasons are not joined to the domain and are completely isolated from the business network (other than RDS over 3389) so we cannot use the one RD licence server for all of them.
For the first jumpbox we happened to have some old 2008 per-user RDS CALs so I used these, but we now need a couple more jumpboxes and I'm contemplating how to licence them. Given that we will only connect to these jumpboxes from one of our two "business" RDS servers it would seem we only really need to installed two per-device RDS CALs? Note that we could have multiple users connecting to these jumpboxes from the business RDS servers, rarely more than 3-4 at a time however.
Am I right do you think?
Thanks!
