Description

A VDA cannot host sessions until the RDS CAL setup is configured correctly.

The issue could be due to a connection issue to the Microsoft License Server, the Microsoft License has expired / entered Grace Period, or the VDA has yet to be configured with an RDS License Server.  

Resolution

To resolve this issue, make sure this VDA has access to the RDS License Server and that it is properly configured.
