Hello Everyone
Please can I request some advice in regards to setting up remotefx usb redirection to a windows 2012 server vm that is hosted on windows 2012 virtual host. The nature of this usb redirection is initially for a testing environment but essentially I need to redirect a polycom cx600 lync phone from a windows thin pc to windows 2012 terminal services remote desktop with lnyc 2010 installed.
My company currently operates server 2008 r2 remote desktops in a terminal services farm. My initial investigation has highlighted that server 2008 r2 as a vm does not support remotefx usb redirection from any client machine. I was able to redirect the usb to a windows 7 sp1 enterprise vm that was hosted in hyper-v on a windows server 2008 r2 virtual host. Incidentally I was also able to redirect the usb to a windows 8 vm that was hosted in hyper-v on a windows server 2008 r2 virtual host.
A Microsoft specialist at a conference advised me that it was possible to run a 2012 vm on a 2012 vh, this is alongside a 2012 session host and a 2012 connection broker. The 2008 install recommends certain installation parameters to the different servers, 2012 is very different. I have added the all the servers (sh,cb and wa) to a group on the virtual host and disseminated the roles in a remote desktop installation. This is where I hit a wall. Can anyone offer advice or links? Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Kind regards
Danny
