There are two triggers that you can use to determine when to start the ZENworks Multicast
session. The fist trigger is the number of clients for a session and the second trigger is the time
within which the clients need to connect to the session. The first trigger to be realized starts the
session.
A session consists of all clients (devices) that are assigned to the Multicast Image Set bundle
that are booting (joining), but must wait for a start trigger. Therefore, the boot processes for the
devices can be held up until one of the triggers is realized, even for as long as you specify in an
elapsed time or number of clients entry.
After a session has started, if other devices boot that are assigned to this bundle, they do not
become part of this session, but become part of the next session when it triggers.
Start the Session As Soon As: You have two choices:
____ clients have joined
This trigger, if met first, limits the session to the number of clients that you specify. The
default is 1.
____ minutes have elapsed since a new client has joined
This trigger, if met first, causes the session to start, regardless of the number of clients that
have joined, except that at least one client must have joined (otherwise there is no device
to multicast to).
A "new client" means that it is the first device to boot that starts this round of waiting for
a trigger to be realized. The default is 5.
NOTE: You cannot manually specify any particular device as the master in the multicast
session.
These triggers are useful if you want economy of scale in multiple clients joining, but don't
want to stall the session too long from starting.
