About the Session Manager
After you establish a connection and log on to the host computer, the Session
Manager window appears on your computer screen. You switch between the
Session Manager modes to perform remote control, remote management, chat,
or file transfer tasks. The tasks that are displayed in the middle of the Session
Manager window navigation bar are only available during a session.

Symantec pcAnywhere lets you run multiple remote sessions at a time. By default,
the Session Manager window displays your active sessions in a single window in
a tabbed view. Each host computer to which you are connected is represented by
a tab so that you can quickly switch between active sessions. The Home tab lets
you go back to the pcAnywhere Manager window (for example, to connect to
another computer). You can change the default settings to display each session
in a separate Session Manager window. The Thumbnail tab provides a thumbnail
view of the number of hosts that a caller is connected to. The Thumbnail tab lets
a remote caller switch between the hosts by clicking the thumbnail link.
See
"Changing how active sessions appear in the Session Manager"
You can switch between active sessions in the Session Manager window, but you
can view only one session at a time. To view multiple sessions at a time, you can
use the Session Manager.
