Hi,
I'm a little bit confused since 2008r2 rds farms.
I have three rds hosts named server1.domain.com through server3.
I have a single remote desktop gateway with session broker and web access role installed. Named gw1-server.domain.com. I connect from the outside with name.domain.com. Everything is ssl'ized with an asterisk certificate *.domain.com.
What I want is connect to my session host without web access. Just the rd client.
I can succesfully connect when i set name.domain.com in my gateway properties field, and server1.domain.com in the hostname field. The client is than logged on to a server with most resources left, so that can be either one to three. Everything fine so far. BUT, now server1.domain.com is down for maintenance. My clients, that have their pre-configured rdp icon on their desktop pointing to server1.domain.com, cannot connect anymore.
I was in the understanding that the session broker would manage this. So I guess i have something mis-configured. On the other hand, clients are evenly distributed over the different rds hosts when they connect. So the session broker is doing something.
Best regards,
