Guacamole Balancing group and local session already opened

[Xavier Bonnec <xa...@univ-rennes2.fr>]

Hi,

I have balancing groups in Guacamole which are running OK when there are 
only remote connections.

Problem : When a local session is opened Guacamole initialize the RDP 
connection and asks for deconnection . It doesn't go further trying 
others connections from the balancing group.

Is there a way to indicate to bypass this or to priorize connections 
with no open session ?


thks

Not really, no, because Guacamole doesn't know that a session is opened
unless it is opened in Guacamole. You'd have to have some way (either
Guacamole polling something on the server, or the server updating some
information with Guacamole) for Guacamole to know that a session is already
opened outside of Guacamole. This doesn't exist in Guacamole, today - the
only solution at the moment is to make sure all access is done through
Guacamole.
