Switch To, Move, Minimize, and Minimize All Functions on HP SAM
Connection Bar
New functionality has been added to the HP SAM connection bar and can be accessed by right-clicking
on a session's status icon and choosing the following actions from the context menu:
●
Switch To—brings the selected session window to the top
●
Move—moves the session window around the local desktop
●
Minimize—minimizes the session window to the taskbar
●
Minimize All—minimizes all session windows to the taskbar for quick access to the local desktop
The action when left-clicking on a session's status icon has been changed to perform the Switch To
action. (In previous versions of HP SAM, the left-click action was Move.)
The HP SAM administrator may disable the right-click context menu by setting
ConnectionBar.EnableContextMenu=0 in the HP SAM client configuration file. It is enabled by default.
NOTE:
The HP SAM connection bar is disabled by default on the Windows HP SAM Client. To enable
it, set ConnectionBar.Enable=1 in the HP SAM client configuration file. The connection bar is enabled
by default on the Linux HP SAM client.
Support for RGS Senders Running on a Non-default Port
HP SAM 3.0 includes support for resources running the RGS Sender (version 5.2.6 or later) that have
been configured to use a TCP port other than 42966. This feature is only available for Windows-based
resources. For more information, see the HP Remote Graphics Software User Guide.
Logoff Scheduler
The HP SAM administrator can now schedule a forced logoff of users from all resources in the specified
roles. The feature supports very flexible time of day and frequency. Only supported on Windows-based
resources.
