6.8 Managing Sessions (Connections) and Device Behavior

7. Click Options > Configuration, and then unlock the OSD as shown above.

8. From the Session tab, select Direct to Host and specify the address of a dedicated peer

(host card).

9. Click OK.

The zero client must be in an unmanaged environment (that is, it cannot have a CMS

specified from OSD’s Options > Connection Management page). If a CMS is specified, the
zero client will wait for a user’s input before starting a session, and it will then connect to the
specified CMS.

Do not select the Enable Host Discovery option from the Options > Discovery page. When

you select this option, the zero client will discover host cards and then display a list of those
that are available. In this scenario, the zero client does not connect to any host.

The zero client must have a dedicated peer, either through a reserved DHCP address or a

static IP. A static peer assignment ensures that the zero client has a specific host that it can
automatically connect to without presenting a list of options to the user.

6.8.3 PCoIP Sessions When Sentral Users Log off Operating

System

When a zero client user logs off a Windows operating system in an unmanaged PCoIP
environment, the session, or connection, between the zero client and the host persists. When a
user logs off of their blade or VM, the host displays the Windows operating system login screen,
enabling the user to log in again from the same zero client.

In an environment where Sentral is deployed, Sentral behaves in the same way by default. You
can configure Sentral to terminate PCoIP sessions when users log off of the Windows operating
system. Perform the following steps to modify the Sentral serverconfiguration.xml file so PCoIP
sessions are terminated when users log off:

1. Use a text editor to open the following file on the Sentral Server machine:

C:\Program Files\ClearCube Sentral\CMSServer\WEB-INF\configuration\

properties\ServerConfiguration.xml

2. Locate the following settings:

i9400.disconnect.logoff

logoff.on.i9400.disconnect

3. Change the values of both of these tags to TRUE and save the file.
