Why "tscon 2 /dest:console" changes screen resolution to 640x480 pixels?

March 15, 2013, 6:18 am

We want to run automated GUI tests on Windows Server 2008 64-bit SP2.

I connect to the Terminalserver with RDP from Windows Vista 32-bit. When GUI tests are running and I disconnect from the Terminalserver, then the tests fail because they run in a GUI-less mode after I disconnected. The problem and a solution is described on a web page. Unfortunately this forum prohibits me to add a link to this test ("Body text cannot contain images or links until we are able to verify your account.") Please google for: "Disconnecting From Remote Desktop Session While Running Automated Tests"

The solution is to use the "tscon" command. This works basically to solve the problem of the GUI-less Terminalserver after I disconnect.

But there is a problem with that solution in our environment. It does not seem to be common since I did not find any solution for the problem described below by googling.

After I disconnect with something like "tscon 2 /dest:console", the screen resolution on the Terminalserver changes to 640x480 pixels. Because of this our automated GUI tests fail since the application under tests needs a larger screen resolution. For instance a button cannot be clicked because a scroll would be required on such a small screen resolution. I know that the screen resolution changes to 640x480 pixel after using "tscon" because our automated tests make screenshots on an error.

When I reconnect to the Terminalserver, the screen size is as usual (1920x1080). But the windows on the desktop and the icons are compressed because the screen resolution has descreased after "tscon".

I tried a lot of things to solve this. I tried to use screen resolution parameters when connecting to the Terminalserver with RDP. I also looked into the registry on the Terminalserver for screen resolutions of 640x480 and increased them. Nothing worked.

Does anyone have an idea how to solve that problem with the screen resolution after using "tscon"?

Terminal Server - Preventing session stealing

Hello.

I have a client with a peculiar TS enviroment:  they use Terminal Server (running in a W2K3 R2) as the main server, and all users access it via thin-clients or Linux stations with RDESKTOP. All of the users uses the same account for loggin into the TS.

Here's the problem: from time to time, some users steals the other's session, since it's the same login account.

Is there a way to prevent it? It's impossible for them to create a user per employee, because this change doesn't reflect their bussiness necessity.

RemoteApp and focus on dialog boxes

We are publishing our applications to the user using RemoteApp.
It happens rather often that when you do something in an app that causes the app to display a dialogbox or maybe just another window
the new window will come up behind the app and impossible to get to. It seems it wont get focus properly and you cannot minimize the app in order to see the window that is requiring your action

I have found a couple of notes about it but nothing with any sugestion to a solution or so.

Anyone seen this before and knows anything more about it

Accessing Server 2008 R2 Domain Controller via Remote Desktop

I have searched everywhere and cannot get this working....

We have a Server 2008 R2 Domain Controller and the domain admins (nobody for that matter) can remote logon to this thing.  The error you get is the standard "To log onto this computer you must be granted the allow log on through terminal services right."  But I have checked and rechecked... the domain admin group (and I even added my own account by itself) has the "Allow Logon through Remote Desktop Services" User Rights Assignment option enabled.  

Checking the Remote tab on the Computer Properties screen shows that the server is set to allow Remote Desktop connections and it says that all of our admin accounts have permissions to logon...

My Googling has been exhausted... does anyone know why this might be happening?  (And yes we have rebooted and GPUpdated...)

Thanks for any help!

Automatically Log in to new session on Broker Farm

March 15, 2013, 1:17 pm

I've set up a Remote Desktop Services broker and farm with just two hosts (server1 and server2), and everything works good except for one issue.  The users can initially log in to their RDS session, their application that launches when they log in launches, etc., life is good.  I then go and simulate a server failure by powering off server1.  The clients connected to server1 go through their timeout stage, and then go about re-connecting and will find the second server in the farm (server2) but instead of just automatically logging in like they do with the initial connection, they get to the Windows login screen and have to wait for input.  Since this is not a clustered fail-over type of setup (I only have Windows Server 2008 R2 standard at my disposal), I understand they're going to get new session and not continue with their same session, and I'm perfectly fine with that.  What I'd like to do do is make it so it just logs in like it did when they double-click the rdp connection with saved credentials, and not have them have to enter anything when it connects to the server that's still up.  Is that even possible with the Microsoft RDP client?  Or am I just stuck with the behavior that I'm experiencing in my testing?  Thanks for any information.

Looking to add a 2nd Server 2008 to existing domain run on server 2008, just for RDS role... do I need RDS CALs as well?

I have an existing Domain with a single Server 2008 R2 Std install, carrying all the usual roles and 15 clients.

Several clients now wish to work from home, and I am wanting to add a 2nd Server 2008 R2 box to the Domain, specifically for the RDS role.

My question is... do the 5 CALs that come with 2008 R2 cover off the RDS, or do I still need to buy 5 RDS CALs as well.

Thanks

Creating remote app collection

I'm trying to create a new session collection to distribute remote apps. I'm doing this on the one 2012 RDS server I have on my domain. But when I get to the screen in the wizard where you select the RD Session Host server to use, my RDS server isn't listed.

Can't use my RDS server as a regular RDS server and also as a session host server for Remote Apps? Or does it require an RDS server not being used for anything else? If I am supposed to be able to use my one RDS server, what do I need to change on it to get it to show in the list to be used for Remote Apps as well?

Admin session on RDP server

On a 2012 RDS server without CALs you have 2 administrative sessions. But on a server with per-user CALs, is it still possible to have 2 people connect via admin sessions so they don't use one of the licenses? Or are the 2 built-in admin sessions done away with when the CALs are installed?

Server 2012 RDS - User Profile Disks - Errors during Logoff

December 19, 2012, 8:01 am

I have set up a test Server 2012 RDS collection (Single Server for now) and implemented User Profile disks.

I have two problems.

First: My generic test user can connect and does successfully use the user profile disk as expected. However, atlogoff, the system event log contains these errors:


The error (NTFS 137) is: The default transaction resource manager on volume C:\Users\ts3.test encountered a non-retryable error and could not start.  The data contains the error code.

The warning (NTFS 50) that concerns me is:

It appears that the user profile disk is being "disabled" or "disconnected" before the profile data is completely written at logoff. What can I do to troubleshoot this?

Second:

Update: A post from Mike Connor on the following page: -LINK- solved the problem described below. 

My administrative user always logs on now with a temporary profile. At the beginning, the UPD was working and mounting. That stopped working. In attempting to troubleshoot, I logged the admin user off and deleted the UPD disk file from the share. I remember it working again after generating a new UPD disk file in the share. Soon, it quit working again. I deleted the UPD disk file again from the share and ever since, it has never regenerated a new UPD andalways logs on with a temporary profile.

RDS 2012 - How to use New-RDPersonalVirtualDesktopPatchSchedule

Hi guys,

I want to configure a virtual desktop patch schedule but the only information i can find is this:

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-US/library/jj215503.aspx

When I run this command:

New-PersonalVirtualDesktopPatchSchedule `
-VirtualDesktopName "VDI-P-1" `
-ConnectionBroker rdscb01.lab.local `
-StartTime (Get-Date).AddMinutes(2) `
-EndTime (Get-Date).AddMinutes(20) `
-Deadline (Get-Date).AddHours(1) `
-Label "VIP (Very Important Patch)" `
-Plugin "Windows Update"

It shows me that the schedule is created:

VirtualDesktop StartTime               EndTime                 Deadline                PatchStatus ID                                    
Name                                                                                                                                     
-------------- ---------               -------                 --------                ----------- --                                    
VDI-P-1        3/13/2013 4:06:39 PM    3/13/2013 4:24:39 PM    3/13/2013 5:04:39 PM    Unknown     c87cb03d-46bc-49a3-999c-c51e142bf6da

And now what?

How can I configure "real" patches/software? What does it do when the schedule is triggered?

Hopefully someone can provide me some information about this subject.

Thanks in advance!

tscon cmd and permissions

Hi,

I have a problem with terminal service permissions I guess. I'm in a 2008R2/win7 pro x64 domain, all machines can connect to all machines with rdp (according they know password of course).

Now, I need every rdp session to reconnect the user after being disconnected. So with quser I get the ID of the session, and I do : tscon X /dest:console (where X is the session ID).
This works great on every pc having administrator rights in the domain. But, on others users without admin rights, even connecting from an admin account to a user machine/account, when typing tscon command I have error 5, access denied.
I tried /password option, runas, etc I can't get this to work.
As I'm network admin, I can modify gpo etc if needed. I would just need a solution.

Thanks,
Kib

Manage cpu resources on a RDS server with "Windows system resource manager"

Hello all,

I'm running a RDS farm with 2008 R2 sp1 servers.

The problem is that we have some heavy excel users which are utilizing the cpu's of the rds servers so much that other users cannot work on the same rds server because the performance is very bad.

I've found out that we should be able to use the "Windows system resource manager"  to prevent this problem.

I have installed and configured the wsrm following the guide on the Microsoft site: technet.microsoft.com en-us library cc754150.aspx

I have selected the Equal_Per_Session policy as managing policy but it doesn’t matter which policy I choose.

After configuring the wsrm it looks like it is working, I am using the  I’m testing the following way:

*I log in with two users to the same RDS server

*With user 1 I am utilizing cpu with the tool consume -cpu-time

*with user 2 I'm trying to start various applications, word excel etc.

Test result is that I can start applications it is a little slower than normal but acceptable.

Now, I am restarting the server to be sure it still works after a restart.

When performing the same test again there is no way the wsrm is working again.

As far as I can see all settings in wsrm are like they should:

I have selected the Equal_Per_Session policy as {Manage} and the services are started.

It does not matter which policy I choose, user 1 is using 100% of cpu resources and user 2 cannot start any application without waiting at least 5 minutes..

I would really appreciate your help on this.

With Regards,

Arjan

Applcation runs much slower after acitivation of Remote Desktop Services

Hi

I have a strange problem and no idea how I can solve this problem.

We installed a Software (4GL/ABL with Winforms .NET 3.5) on a Win2k12 Server. I made the first performance test without activation of Remote Desktop Services. But I conneceted with RDP to the Server (Win7 Client).

The application writes always a log with start and end time (server side --> on the terminal server).

After the activation of Remote Desktop Services, the application runs much slower (1 second to show the window). Because the log is written on the server, its not a connection problem.

What is the difference between RDP Connection without installed Remote Desktop Services and with activated Remote Desktop Services? And how can I solve this problem?

Thanks for your help!

scalability of Windows 2012 TS Solution

Hi, Is there still a need for Citrix or can Windows 2012 now scale to large enterprises with 20,000 concurrent users? Consultants keep telling us Windows 2012 can't but no one seems to be able to say why. Even the Microsoft rep who is the business relationship manager for Citrix didn't seem to even understand what 2012 can or cant do from a RDS point of view. From a broker point of view we have some high end F5s that we can use to scale the connections, I just am trying to work out whether we still need Citrix. Currently Citrix is used to host applications. (no streaming) It would be good to reduce our licensing. Obviously Microsoft present challenges with non Microsoft clients, however beyond that, I would like to understand if we want to move to a non citrix environment if it is possible. Thanks
