Hello Community!
I'm designing a new 2012 R2 RDS infrastructure for a customer.
The goal is to have a full high available system.
Actually, we have 4 virtual servers with RDHS and RDCB roles on each. We created a Session Collection. No problems.
The only problem we get is with RDC 7.0 on XP clients (v 6.1.7600). I know : there is no support on Windows XP since July, 14h 2014 but my customer got 2/3 of his clients on Windows XP.
When connecting to the Farm (identified by a DNS RR), the XP client is redirected to the least used server and get a temp profile.
When connecting to the Farm throught the DNS name of one of the servers : no problems.
I read multiple articles discuting about DNS RR or NLB, but I never found an simple explanation : is it possible to connect XP clients into the farm through th DNS Farm name (DNS RR) in order to get a full High Available system?
Thanks by advance for your help
