Modifying The Client Image To Support Desktop Manager Console - Compaq 238618-001 - Evo Thin Client Quick Setup Manual

Modifying the client image to support Desktop Manager
Console
Within the client image, you should create a Client Sign-in desktop icon that opens a browser with the
URL <Server name>/client. You can then drag this icon also to the Startup folder for Windows, so that
each time the client machine(s) power on, the desktop sign-in dialog is displayed.
The client image also requires the NIMCltSvc service to be running and enabled to control the client.
This service is enabled by default in the option kits provided by HP. To manually install and configure
this option, perform a client installation, then run the ControlService.exe application from the C:
\Program File\HP Image Manager\client directory. Check the Enable the Service check-box, set the
two polling interval to 30, set the Warning timeout to 90, check the Enable remote Shutdown/
Reboot check-box, and check the Enable keep-alive check-box. In order for this change to be
permanently incorporated into the client image, you need to make these changes while the client is
booted in Admin mode off this image. Once the changes are made and saved, the client can be closed
down and the image returned to Volatile mode.
NOTE: Experience has shown that a good starting value for the Polling interval and Warning
timeout would be 30 and 90 respectively.
