We recently deployed a Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 Session Host for our 2008R2 farm.
The users frequently disconnect from a session at one computer (nurse station) and reconnect to the session from another computer (patient room station). They can do this back and forth multiple times a day.
It seems an initial login, to a station with a USB barcode scanner, will allow them to utilize the scanner in their Remote Desktop session. If they are reconnecting to a session, to a station with a USB barcode scanner, they cannot utilize the scanner in their Remote Desktop session.
I would presume this is because the session only scans for USB device events to map on initial logon AND/OR when you physically add a new device (ie. USB drive).
I'm looking for a solution to do the scan for USB devices to access at a set interval or upon reconnection to an existing session.
Please and thank you.
