web-help/Connecting_ZC_AWS_HTML5/TER1408002_Connecting_ZC_AWS.htm#03_DeployPCM.htm%3FTocPath%3D3.
For information about configuring the Broker Server address = “URI (https://<FQDN
or IP address>) of the PCM”, go to www.teradici.com/web-help/Connecting_ZC_AWS_HTML5/
TER1408002_Connecting_ZC_AWS.htm#05_Connect.htm%3FTocPath%3D5.
Known issues with Amazon Web Services or WorkSpaces
● Key combination Ctrl + Alt disconnects users from AWS session intermittently with old agent in AWS desktop. To fix this
issue, update to latest agent by rebooting the desktop.
● Each user is assigned with one WorkSpaces desktop, and therefore logon with any username returns to the single desktop
and then the session connects automatically. Disconnecting from the desktop returns user to logon screen.
Configuring Teradici Cloud Access
Teradici technology enables you to securely access the remote applications using Teradici Cloud Access. You can manage and
optimize your PCoIP-enabled clients. For more information about Cloud Access, see www.teradici.com/cloud-access.
NOTE:
You can use the INI parameter ConnectionBroker=TeradiciCloudAccess to enable Teradici cloud access from this
release. The INI parameter sets Teradici as the connection broker.
This section provides information about how to configure a Teradici Cloud Access broker connection on your ThinOS device.
Configuring the Teradici Cloud Access broker connection
To configure the Teradici Cloud Access broker setup:
1. From the desktop menu, click System Setup, and then click Remote Connections.
