B. Secure Global Desktop Server Settings
Attributes on the Client Device tab are settings for the user’s client device. This tab controls the use of client device features for applications displayed through SGD.
From the command line, use the tarantella config list command to list these settings, and
the
tarantella config edit command to edit these settings.
This tab contains the following sections:
Client Drive Mapping
This section contains the following attributes:
Audio
This section contains the following attributes:
Other Features
This section contains the following attributes:
Profile Editing
This section contains the Editing attribute.
Usage: Select or deselect the check box.
Whether to enable client drive mapping (CDM) for applications running on Windows application servers.
Changes to this attribute only take effect for new user sessions.
Command option: --array-windowscdm 1 | 0
Usage: Specify 1 (true) or 0 (false).
The following example enables Windows CDM for the array.
--array-windowscdm 1
Usage: Select or deselect the check box.
Whether to enable CDM for applications running on UNIX or Linux platform application servers.
To use UNIX platform CDM, the Oracle Secure Global Desktop Enhancement Module (SGD Enhancement Module) must be installed and running on the application server.
If you enable UNIX platform CDM, CDM services only become available when you restart all SGD servers in the array. To manually start CDM services without restarting the array, run the tarantella start cdm command on all SGD servers in the array.
If you disable UNIX platform CDM, the CDM processes only stop when you restart all SGD servers in the array. To manually stop CDM services without restarting the array, run the tarantella stop cdm command on all SGD servers in the array.
Changes to this attribute only take effect for new user sessions.
Command option: --array-unixcdm 1 | 0
Usage: Specify 1 (true) or 0 (false).
The following example enables UNIX platform CDM for the array.
--array-unixcdm 1
Usage: Select or deselect the check box.
Whether to enable dynamic drive mapping for the array. This feature enables “hot plugging” of removable storage devices, such as Universal Serial Bus (USB) drives.
By default, dynamic drive mapping is enabled for an SGD array.
To use dynamic drive mapping, CDM must be enabled for the array. This
means that the Windows Client Drive Mapping or
Unix Client Drive Mapping attribute must be enabled.
To use dynamic drive mapping for UNIX and Linux platform application servers, the Oracle Secure Global Desktop Enhancement Module (SGD Enhancement Module) must be installed and running on the application server.
Changes to this attribute only take effect when you restart all the SGD servers in the array.
Command option: --array-dyndevice 1 | 0
Usage: Specify 1 (true) or 0 (false).
The following example disables dynamic drive mapping for the array.
--array-dyndevice 0
Usage: Select or deselect the check box.
Whether to enable Windows audio services for the array.
To play audio for Windows applications, audio redirection must be enabled on the Windows Terminal Server.
Changes to this attribute only take effect for new user sessions.
Command option: --array-audio 1 | 0
Usage: Specify 1 (true) or 0 (false).
The following example disables Windows audio services for the array.
--array-audio 0
Usage: Select an option.
The sample rate of the audio data.
Adjusting the audio quality increases or decreases the amount of audio data sent.
By default, SGD uses Medium Quality Audio.
The sample rates are as follows:
Low Quality Audio – 8 kHz.
Medium Quality Audio – 22.05 kHz.
High Quality Audio – Same as Medium Quality Audio. This is a Terminal Services restriction.
Command option: --array-audio-quality low | medium | high
Usage: Specify an audio quality setting.
The following example specifies medium quality audio for Windows audio services.
--array-audio-quality medium
Usage: Select or deselect the check box.
Whether to enable UNIX platform audio services for the array.
UNIX platform audio is only available for X applications. The audio module of the SGD Enhancement Module must be installed and running on the application server.
Changes to this attribute only take effect for new user sessions.
Command option: --array-unixaudio 1 | 0
Usage: Specify 1 (true) or 0 (false).
The following example disables UNIX platform audio services for the array.
--array-unixaudio 0
Usage: Select an option.
The sample rate of the audio data.
Adjusting the audio quality increases or decreases the amount of audio data sent.
By default, SGD uses Medium Quality Audio.
The sample rates are as follows:
Low Quality Audio – 8 kHz
Medium Quality Audio – 22.05 kHz
High Quality Audio – 44.1 kHz
Command option: --array-unixaudio-quality low | medium | high
Usage: Specify an audio quality setting.
The following example specifies medium quality audio for UNIX platform audio services.
--array-unixaudio-quality medium
Usage: Select or deselect the check box.
Whether to enable smart card services for the array.
To use smart cards, smart card device redirection must be enabled on the Windows Terminal Server.
Changes to this attribute only take effect for new user sessions.
Command option: --array-scard 1 | 0
Usage: Specify 1 (true) or 0 (false).
The following example enables smart card services for the array.
--array-scard 1
Usage: Select or deselect the check box.
Whether to enable access to serial ports for the array.
By default, access to serial ports is enabled.
Access to serial ports for individual users can be enabled and disabled using
the Serial Port Mapping attribute for organization, organizational unit or user profile objects.
Changes to this attribute only take effect for new user sessions.
Command option: --array-serialport 1 | 0
Usage: Specify 1 (true) or 0 (false).
The following example enables access to serial ports for the array.
--array-serialport 1
Usage: Select or deselect the check box.
Whether to allow copy and paste operations for Windows and X application sessions for the array.
By default, copy and paste is allowed.
Copy and paste operations for individual users can be enabled and disabled using
the Copy and Paste attribute for organization, organizational unit, or user profile objects.
Changes to this attribute only take effect for new application sessions.
Command option: --array-clipboard-enabled 1 | 0
Usage: Specify 1 (true) or 0 (false).
