1 Introduction

HP Remote Client Solutions are designed to support a variety of users’ needs, from the most basic

computing tasks to more demanding professional and technical applications, while giving IT greater

control over technology resources, simplifying desktop management, increasing agility and, in many

cases, reducing total cost of ownership.

Underlying HP Remote Client Solutions is a unified infrastructure that enables client deployment,

session allocation, balancing of computing resources, and supports the business needs of a diverse set

of users though the use of a common set of tools.

The HP Session Allocation Manager (HP SAM) system is the control point in managing an HP Remote

Client Solutions deployment. HP SAM manages the assignment of connections from an end-user's client

access device to desktop sessions running on computing resources in a centralized location (typically,

a data center). HP SAM makes these desktop sessions available to users as they are needed.

Resource Reservations (AKA Access Restrictions)

This feature allows the administrator to restrict when and from where users may access resources. It

also provides the ability to free up resources as needed for when other users require those resources.

Role settings now enable the administrator to specify the source IP Address range time of day, and day

(s) of the week. Users in that role will then only receive a resource from that role when using an access

device in the IP Address range and only on the specified day during the specified period of time. In this

case, the user will be sent directly to a resource in this role even if he has many other roles—he will not

see a role selection dialog. If outside of the IP range and time/day, the user will be denied access to

that role. Multiple such reservations can be designated on each role.

By default, at the end of the reservation period, the user is logged off of the resource. The Allow time

extension option can be set to allow a user to remain logged in beyond the current resource reservation

end time. They can remain logged in until another resource reservation time period for the same role

begins (or at 12:00 midnight, if no other reservations are set.) A dialog warns the user before the logoff

occurs. The lead time of this warning can be configured in System Settings on the General page of the

HP SAM Web Administrator console.

For example, a school may use resource reservations to ensure students get a resource from the correct

role for each class and make sure resources are freed in time for a later class needing resources in the

same role. The administrator can set a reservation on the Math Class role specifying the IP address

range of a certain classroom and a certain time/day when the math class occurs. The student who logs

in using a computer in this classroom during the right day and time will get a resource in the Math

Class role without having to choose which role. He can then use the resource until the class is over.

Another reservation on the Math Class role may specify another math class in a different room at a later

time for the same resource(s). The automatic logoff feature ensures that those resources will be

available for students in the later class.

When the HP SAM Server and the access devices are in different time zones, note that the times set

in Resource Reservations are the times of the access device, not the time of the server. For example,

suppose the HP SAM server is in the Central Standard time zone and the time in the reservation is

specified as 4PM. This will correspond to 4PM on the access device in the Pacific Standard time zone

(even though the time on the HP SAM server operating system will show 6PM.) Therefore, be sure that

times and time zones are set correctly for all systems involved.

The automatic logoff time is given to the resource during user login and is not updated if the reservations

are subsequently updated on the server. For example, if a user is logged in during a reservation set for

2-3PM which has Allow time extensions enabled and there is another reservation already set for

5-6PM, the resource will log the user off at 5PM. If, after the user logs in for the first reservation, the HP

SAM administrator adds a new reservation starting at 4PM, the user will still not be logged off until 5PM.

The Logoff Scheduler (Logoff Scheduler on page 4) features can be used to set a logoff time slightly
