Computer system and methods providing virtual computing session connections and re-directs based upon ordered list of virtual delivery agents

Abstract:

A computer system may include at least one client computing device, and a plurality of host computing devices each configured to provide virtual computing sessions for the at least one client computing device. Each host computing device may have a virtual delivery agent (VDA) associated therewith configured to connect the at least one client computing device with the virtual computing sessions. The at least one client computing device may be configured to request virtual computing sessions from the VDAs in accordance with an ordered list of the VDAs. The VDAs may be configured to re-direct new session requests from the at least one client computing device to a lower VDA in the ordered list when an existing virtual computing session is already active with the host computing device associated with the lower VDA.
