Could not create session. The maximum number of sessions has been reached

Question

i installed nice dcv on my linux ec2 instance using the cloud formation and this works well, 
but i am unable to make sessions

```
dcv list-sessions
Session: 'console' (owner:dcvuser type:console)
```

then if i run this to just test:

```
dcv create-session test
Could not create session. The maximum number of sessions has been reached
```
don't know if i am missing anything or not doing it properly, what i plan to do eventually is to have multiple sessions for users that visit my web, and i just auto start an application when the open up on the web (they won't have access to the pc, kind of how appStream2.0 works)

You can only have one *console* session per server.  To support multiple sessions, you need to disable console and switch to *virtual* sessions

Hi,

What is the value that you gave to `--max-concurrent-clients `?

From https://docs.aws.amazon.com/dcv/latest/adminguide/managing-sessions-start.html

```
dcv create-session \
    --type console|virtual \
    --name session_name \
    --user username \
    --owner owner_name \
    --permissions-file /path_to/permissions_file \
    --storage-root /path_to/storage_directory \
    --gl on|off \
    --max-concurrent-clients number_of_clients \
    --init /path_to/init_script \
    session_ID
```

Best,

Didier
