Active Directory Domain Environment
Your active directory domain environment must meet the following requirements.
-
You must have a Microsoft Active Directory domain to which to join your streaming instances. If you don't have an Active Directory domain or you want to use your on-premises Active Directory environment, see Active Directory Domain Services on AWS Partner Solution Deployment Guide
. -
You must have a domain service account with permissions to create and manage computer objects in the domain that you intend to use with AppStream 2.0. For information, see How to Create a Domain Account in Active Directory
in the Microsoft documentation. When you associate this Active Directory domain with AppStream 2.0, provide the service account name and password. AppStream 2.0 uses this account to create and manage computer objects in the directory. For more information, see Granting Permissions to Create and Manage Active Directory Computer Objects.
-
When you register your Active Directory domain with AppStream 2.0, you must provide an organizational unit (OU) distinguished name. Create an OU for this purpose. The default Computers container is not an OU and cannot be used by AppStream 2.0. For more information, see Finding the Organizational Unit Distinguished Name.
-
The directories that you plan to use with AppStream 2.0 must be accessible through their fully qualified domain names (FQDNs) through the virtual private cloud (VPC) in which your streaming instances are launched. For more information, see Active Directory and Active Directory Domain Services Port Requirements
in the Microsoft documentation.
