Running session host virtual machines shutdown state in hostpool
Hi all,
I want to share this quick fix regarding hostpool session hosts in 'shutdown" state even when Azure VMs are running and are accessible by administrators (via RDP or remote access software):
1. Uninstall all agent, boot loader, and stack components
2. Remove the session host from the host pool
3. Generate a new registration key for the VM
4. Reinstall the Azure Virtual Desktop Agent and boot loader
Is it sarcastic? How is this quick? It's essentially starting over and going throw entire process again.
- Same problem today for me, I decided to recreate a new vm for the pool.
But...... I have not yet understand how it's happened! I suppose, after scheduled avd agent update.- Can confirm - delete any session hosts that have an issue, recreate and re-add. Don't waste your time touching hosts that are essentially just cogs in a machine - pull them out and replace them.
