RDS session host not working

Question

Hi,

I setup a RDS server include Licensing/Broker/Session Host roles. Then install 20 per user license in the RDS server. It allow more than 20 user login the RDS server by remote desktop at the same time, but when user remote to the RDS server then remote to other server by remote desktop, it still only allow 2 session.

When I create the collection, it need to add all server in it, or just add the Session Host server?

Any setting I missed in the RDS?

Thanks

Hello Chong,

Yes, we will exclusively include the Remote Desktop Session Host. The RD Session Host is responsible for managing session-based applications and desktops that are shared with users. The installed license is specifically intended for the session host that is being shared.
