Remote desktop bot sessions
Running a bot from the Control Room uses a remote desktop session.
If the option Run bot runner session on control room is selected when running a bot, the Control Room opens a Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) session to the devices.
To determine the number of simultaneously supported RDP sessions possible:
Divide the unallocated Control Room memory by the memory usage of an individual RDP client. Typically, this is 75 MB.
To support more than 35 simultaneous RDP sessions:
- Manually increase the amount of memory available for the non-interactive desktop
heap size. To do this, edit the Windows registry value
at:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\SubSystems
- In the Windows registry, locate the
SharedSection
option. Change it to:SharedSection=A,B,C
