Publishing a Document from an RD Session Host

To publish a document from an RD Session Host, follow the below procedure:

  1. In the RAS Console, select the Publishing category and then click the Add icon below the Published Resources tree (or right-click inside the Published Resources box and click Add in the context menu).  This will launch the publishing wizard.

    Note: If the wizard has all options disabled, it means that there are no resources (servers) in the farm from which publishing can be configured.

  2. On the Select Item Type wizard page, select Document and click Next.
  3. Select RD Session Host and click Next.
  4. Specify the content type of the document you want to publish. You can select the content type from the predefined list or specify a custom content type in the Custom content types input field.
  5. Click Next when ready.
  6. On the Publish From page, specify from which RD Session Hosts the application should be published. You have the following options:
    • All Servers in Site. If selected, the application will be published from all servers that are available on the site.
    • Server Groups. Select this option and then select individual server groups to publish the application from.
    • Individual Servers. Select this option and select individual servers to publish the application from.

    Please note that the Publish From wizard page will appear only if you have multiple RD Session Hosts. If you have just one server, this page will be skipped by the wizard.

  7. On the Application page, enter a name, an optional description, a Window state, and an icon if needed.
  8. Use the [...] button next to the Target input field to browse for the document. All other fields will be automatically populated. To edit any of the auto populated fields, highlight them and enter the required details.
  9. (Optional) In the Parameters input field, specify the parameters to pass to the application when it starts.

    Note: Use the Server(s) drop down list to specify different document settings for a specific server in case the document is configured differently on that particular server. The settings will be saved for each server you select individually.

  10. Click Finish to publish the document.
