  1. Overview of Remote Desktop Services (Previously Known as Terminal Services) AshwinPalekar Group Program Manager Microsoft Corporation WSV308

  2. Agenda • Remote Desktop Services… What’s that?! • What is new in Windows Server 2008 R2? • Demo

  3. WS 2008 Terminal Services Today • RemoteApp™ • Applications look and feel like they are running locally • Can be provisioned using MSI files or TS Web Access • RD Gateway • Securely access any RDP host machine over the firewall • Integrates with Network Access Protection • RemoteApp & Desktop Web Access • Provides easy to configure web page to launch RemoteApp programs • Designed for lower complexity configurations • RD Easy Print • Removes need to install any printer drivers on terminal server • 100% of printer functionality is available to user • Platform Investments • Improved management via new APIs, WMI & Improved Event Logs • Improved security & reliability, e.g. ability to patch TS without restart

  4. Introducing Remote Desktop Services (RDS) !

  5. Deployment Scenarios • Remote Access • Desktop Replacement • App Consolidation • Branch Office • Partner Access

  6. RDS – New and Improved RD Virt Host RD Session Host • Unified Admin and User experience for • RD Session Host (1 session per user) • RD Virtualization Host (1 VM w/desktop OS per user) • Two options for VM-based desktops • pooled virtual desktop • permanent virtual desktop • Richer remoting experience (multi-mon, multi-media, bi-directional audio, rich graphics) • Better App Compat thru AppV for RDS • Scalable VM management thru SCVMM • Enhancements in RD Session Host Pooled VMs Personal VMs Single Image Sessions with Server OS (Session-per-user) VMs with Client OS (VM-per-user) RD Connection Broker

  7. RDS Deployment Options Customers will mix & match options

  9. Drilldown into RD Session Host

  10. RD Session Host improvements • Application Compatibility • Windows Installer RD Session Host Compatibility • Per-session and per-application IP • Reduce impact of users on one another • Fair Share CPU Distribution among sessions • Prevent overflow of Roaming User Profile cache • Quota for overall RUP cache on the server • Security • Kerberos authentication for RDSH Farm

  11. Application Compatibility • Windows Installer applications issues • Most apps are written for desktops • In the past MSI apps needed special installation steps on RDS • Windows Installer RD Session Host Compatibility • Brings in missing per-user configuration settings during initial app startup phase • Allows concurrent MSI installations from multiple users by queuing requests • Single IP issues • LOB apps allow only one connection from one IP address • Regulatory

  12. IP Virtualization • IP Virtualization Modes • Per-program • Per-session • DHCP integration • Virtual IP addresses will be obtained from DHCP 10.0.0.1 10.0.0.2 10.0.0.3 RD Server 10.0.0.31 10.0.0.32 10.0.0.33 Backend Server 13

  13. Scheduling mechanism fairly distributes CPU cycles across sessions Dynamically distributes cycles based on number of active sessions and their load Applied at kernel level Fair Share CPU Scheduling

  14. Algorithm for Equal CPU Distribution • Sharing on Per CPU basis • Each session gets a fraction of each CPU • Interval divided among sessions using Round Robin • Every 150 ms all threads are freed from idle queue and given a fresh start • By default all sessions have same weight so even division of CPU where each quantum = 150/number of sessions • Threads exceeding quota are queued on interrupt • If CPU finishes under-quota threads, it takes highest pri thread of least over-quota session and gives session 5 ms

  15. RD Gateway • Security Improvements • Device Redirection policy enforcement • Disconnect after Idle • Reauthenticate after Session timer • Messages • Show Legal messages (EULA) before connectivity • Administrator Messaging - Service Messaging • BPA • Best practice analyzer to warn Administrators of improper RD Gateway server configuration Microsoft Confidential

  16. RD Session Host and AppVBetter together Microsoft Confidential

  17. WS08 R2 – New and Improved Improved Improved NEW! Platform & Management Improvements New API, Connection Broker Extensibility,,Powershell Support, Best Practices Analyze, Full MSI support
