FAQ: Delayed variable updates on Terminal Server Service Engine Clients occur in some scenarios.

In some cases, Service Engine Clients on a Terminal Server might have delayed variable updates. Depending on the system those delays can be about 2 seconds.

A reason for this can be a hostname resolution procedure, which is needed to determine correctly terminal client names in the CEL or AML. In order to avoid this, the Hosts entries can be adapted to speed up the response time.

To understand, alter and adapt those entries correctly, please refer to the Windows Documentation on the Hosts file.
