We want to have a couple stand alone RDS session host servers (2012 R2). We want them to function like just your regular old terminal server - not in a farm or anything else. The question I have is, is there a way to point them to a RDS license server directly? When I look at get-RDLicenseConfiguration it says a deployment does not exist. Do you have to have a RDS connection broker for licenses to work? The license server is good to go and has activated licenses. And it's in the Terminal server license servers group in AD. But yet these servers keep giving warnings that the licenses are running out.
I guess my question is, if I want two standalone RDS session host servers with a shared RDS license server, what do I need to do to accomplish this? It seems like doing a full blown server farm is easier than doing this and I'm not sure why.
