15 Creating Device-Based Allocations
The steps below show how to allocate clients to blades (a zero client to a blade in this example).
NOTE:
To allocate devices they must be in a group as shown in 14.4 “Creating Groups and Subgroups”
above.
1. From the Sentral menu, click Connection Brokering > Allocation.
2. Click the Thin Client tab.
3. From the pane on the left, select the zero client you want to allocate (listed in the Hostname
column). From the pane on the right, select the host (blade) to which to allocate the zero client.
4. Click Allocate, located on the bottom of the screen. The devices are now allocated.
5. Optionally, to delete the allocation, select the zero client or the blade and click Delete Current
Allocation(s) at the bottom of the device selection pane.
Perform the same process to allocate zero clients or thin clients to virtual machines.
16 Administrator-Instantiated PCoIP Sessions
When performing device-based allocations, administrators can remotely create a PCoIP session from
Sentral Console.
NOTE:
The zero client and the blade must be allocated to perform this procedure.
1. From the Sentral menu, click Connection Brokering > Allocation.
2. From the Connection Brokering screen, select the zero client and the blade that are allocated.
3. Click the Connect button at the bottom of the screen to create a PCoIP session. (If a session is not
created, ensure that the devices are allocated to each other).
17 Creating User-Based Allocations
The steps below show how to allocate a user to a blade. Perform similar steps to allocated users to
virtual machines.
1. From the Sentral menu, click Connection Brokering > Allocation.
2. Click the Users tab.
3. From the pane on the left, select the user (listed in the Hostname column) you want to allocate.
From the pane on the right, select the blade to which to allocate the user.
4. Click Allocate, located on the bottom of the screen. The user and blade are now allocated.
5. To delete the allocation, select the user or the blade and click Delete Current Allocation(s) at the
bottom of the device selection pane.
