How to Configure TS Session Broker

Before you can begin configuring TS Session Broker you need to add TS Session Broker as a role service under Terminal Services.

Once TS Session Broker is added as a Terminal Services role service, review the information about the new role service before confirming its installation.

Once you have added TS Session Broker as a new Terminal Services role service, you can add computers running Terminal Server to it.

You can do this by navigating to the Session Directory Computers security group and selecting the members that belong to this group.

You can easily add computers running Terminal Server to TS Session Broker by browsing for them in the list of users, contacts, computers, and groups in your forest.

You can refine your search by choosing only the Computers object type.

This shows you the list of all the computers in your forest. For this demonstration, only the domain controller and a terminal server are being used.

So, here you can see the domain controller NYC-DC and the terminal server NYC-TS1.

After adding all the Terminal Server computers you want to TS Session Broker, you need to create a group policy for TS Session Broker.

You can do this in the Group Policy Management console by creating a new group policy object.

You can name the group policy in a way that is easy for identification.

After creating the group policy object, you open its settings and edit its configuration so that the new group policy object links to the TS Session Broker role service you have installed.
