Issues with Side by Side Stack
We have not been happy with the (laggy) user experience either so will probably move away and look for a different solution. I am assuming the lag is because of the management plane being in US only!
fara1In the end I've just deployed a VM with the image from the marketplace and on top of that installed and configured everything we need, then created a managed Image and deployed this one, works like a charm but for another issue that the RD agent Updater doesn't work anymore.
Yes the preformance is related to the management plane in the US.
A_priori_superiorYeah I basically did the same thing to capture from a VM and use for hostpool.
Also Today I asked our developers to use the standard RDP into those VMs and obviously massive improvements in user experience. They can actually do their work. I was really excited about WVD and it was my suggestion to implement and use it but unfortunately it is not enterprise yet or at least for outside US.
Back to the whole SXS issue, I created another VM from Win 10 1809 for WVD (from Azure Gallery) today and followed this https://docs.microsoft.com/en-au/azure/virtual-desktop/create-host-pools-powershell to domain join and install RD agent and bootloader. It still did not register with the hostpool and rdp-sxs does not appear! So whatever they have removed from the guides, whether it's the PoSH script or something else, has definitely broken this process.
