Once you have added the servers, please press next. For example, you may have multiple Terminal Servers which you may want to load balance between, this is where you would add them. The next step is to select the relevant servers from the server pool listed that you would like to become a part of the collection.

You will then need to create a suitable name for the collection and (optional) description and press “Next”. The first step in the wizard will be to press next after you have read the information. You will then need to go to the option of “Create Session Collection”, once there it will present you with the following wizard. Then go to the “Collections” tab, and go to the top area and click on “Tasks” as per the below screenshot. Once you are there, please ensure that the servers that you require to be in your collection are listed in the “Servers” list. Once server manager has opened up, you will need to go to your “Remote Desktop Services” tab.

Go to the server that you would like to access the collection from and open Server Manager. This also helps to manage the access to the terminal servers. Having RDS collections can be very useful if you have a situation where you are an administrator for a terminal server and need to “Shadow” users sessions or send them messages.
