Azure Virtual Desktop ARM Template Change - Removal of Script-AddRdshServer.ps1

Microsoft

On November 1, 2021, there will be a change in the components in the Configuration.zip file from the AVD ARM Templates GitHub. The Script-AddRdshServer.ps1 will be removed and will no longer be in the Configuration.zip. In addition, there will be 3 new files: AvdFunctions.ps1, Script-SetupSessionHost.ps1, and Script-TestSetupSessionHost.ps1. If you have any code that is dependent on the Script-AddRdshServer.ps1, this is a breaking change for you and you will need to make the appropriate amends to reference the Script-SetupSessionHost.ps1 instead of Script-AddRdshServer.ps1 prior to November 1, to avoid any issues.

 

In the future, we recommend that you only rely on the Configuration.ps1 file and the Script-SetupSessionHost.ps1 file, as the other files in the Configuration.zip are subject to change. We will only consider breaking changes as changes in the signature for the Configuration.ps1 file and the Script-SetupSessionHost.ps1 file. Though we always strive to ensure backwards compatibility, there are times when we must make a breaking change. In those scenarios, we will communicate that here on the Tech Community forum and on GitHub 2 weeks prior to the change being made.
