Remote Desktop Services can be extremely useful, allowing users to access a terminal server or their company desktop computer from another location. One very common complaint with RDP sessions is screen refresh delays and a delay when typing or trying to click on items using the mouse cursor. It will appear to most that the session has become unresponsive for a period of 5-20 seconds, after this delay the session will return to normal for a period of several minutes before once again becoming unresponsive. You may find that this issue becomes more apparent as more users connect to the specific terminal server in question and if all these users utilise several applications (i.e. Outlook, Word and Excel) together.
Causes for poor user experience when connected via RDP are varied but one of the most common is resource exhaustion or contention. This in turn causes a delay in processing that appears as a pause or unresponsiveness.
Check that your computer or terminal server has sufficient Memory to cope with the current load.
The next thing to verify by using performance monitor is that the PhysicalDisk\% Idle Time is consistently high, that’s correct this should be 90-100% when the server is not very busy.
It is worth running performance monitor using the PhysicalDisk\% Idle Time counter whilst you are seeing the slowdowns, this will help identify if your hard disk or controller are causing contention and in turn the pausing or unresponsiveness.
If you do find that the “%Idle Time” keeps going very low then it’s time to consider some of the options below to help resolve the issue
Example – HP RAID Array Configuration Utility:
Example – Windows Device Manager:
Installing Hotfixes/Service Packs for Microsoft SharePoint 2010 and Microsoft SharePoint Foundation 2010 is a two step process now. First you should install the service pack or hotfix and then you need to verify if PSConfig needs to be run. PSConfig normally always needs to be run as this updates the actual SharePoint databases.
Not completing the PSConfig command where required can cause SharePoint search failures and Sharepoint backups may stop working correctly on the server.
To simplify the process of identifying which SharePoint servers require the PSConfig update I have put together a Powershell script that will return a simple answer to the question of do I need to run PSConfig or not. The example below also includes “Exit 0” and “Exit 1” in the script, this is only really required for GFI Max Remote Management users. The Exit codes tell the GFI max Remote Management software to either pass or fail the script check so that a red cross appears on the server monitoring dashboard to alert administrators that action is required on that server.
If you do not use GFI Max Remote Management or you only want the script to report the need for a PSConfig upgrade then simply remove the lines with “Exit 0” and “Exit 1” on and then you can just save this is a Powershell script on your server desktop and run it manually.
Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell
$NEEDSUPGRADE = (get-spserver $env:computername).NeedsUpgrade
If ($NEEDSUPGRADE | Where {$_ -eq “True”})
{
Write-Host “SharePoint Upgrade Required”
Exit 1
}
Else
{
Write-Host “No Upgrade Required”
Exit 0
}
My next post will tell you how to run the PSConfig command to update your SharePoint 2010 database if required.
