PCoIP Management Console User Manual Introduction The Teradici PCoIP Management Console (MC) enables administrators to centrally manage a PCoIP deployment. The MC is packaged as a VMware® virtual machine (VM) and runs on VMware Player. A web browser is used to access and control the MC.
PCoIP Management Console User Manual 1 Overview This section describes the components found in a typical PCoIP deployment. It describes some important concepts that help the user understand how to use the MC to manage the PCoIP devices in a deployment. 1.1 PCoIP Deployment Components Figure 1-1 shows the recommended components found in a PCoIP deployment where individual Host and Zero Client devices are statically grouped together (peered).
PCoIP Management Console User Manual However, users should avoid changing the configuration settings through the device web interface, especially as the deployment grows. Instead, users are encouraged to use the MC; this ensures that all PCoIP devices are configured uniformly and that the MC database accurately reflects the device configuration settings. Refer to the PCoIP Administrative Interface User Manual (TER0606004) for information on the web interface.
PCoIP Management Console User Manual • All PCoIP devices in a deployment reside on the same network subnet as the MC. In this situation the MC can find the devices using SLP discovery. All devices must set the Enable SLP Discovery configuration setting equal to True. • The PCoIP MC DNS-Based Discovery Prefix setting of all devices is configured to equal the hostname prefix of the MC. This setting can only be accessed using the MC.
PCoIP Management Console User Manual could be related to profiles. The figure shows three groups of devices. Two of the groups share the same profile. In this situation all configuration settings defined in the Development Profile will be written to the devices in the R&D and Engineering groups. Figure 1-2: Management Console Groups and Profiles Below are some important rules regarding groups and profiles. TER0812002 Issue 5 • Each group has one and only one profile associated with it.
PCoIP Management Console User Manual 1.3.2 Fixed Seating The MC allows an administrator to link individual Host and Zero Client devices so that each Zero Client always establishes a connection to the same Host. This relationship is called fixed seating. If a PCoIP deployment requires the ability to dynamically assign Hosts to Zero Clients when users login the administrator must install a connection broker. The MC does not support dynamically assigning Hosts to Zero Clients. 1.3.
PCoIP Management Console User Manual Add the MC DNS SRV Record to the DNS Server To add the MC DNS SRV record to DNS Server in Windows 2003 Server, perform the following steps: 1. Enter DNS service configuration on domain controller. 2. Navigate to local domain and _tcp entry. Figure 1-3: DNS Service Configuration Menu 3. Right click and select “Other New Records …” 4. Select “Service Location (SRV)”. 5.
PCoIP Management Console User Manual Figure 1-4: DNS Service Location (SRV) Dialog Box 1.3.3.2 PCoIP Management Console DNS-Based Discovery Prefix Each PCoIP device reads the PCoIP MC DNS-Based Discovery Prefix setting when it boots. If this setting is non-blank then the device attempts to contact the MC by combining the string stored in this setting with variations of the domain name hierarchy.
PCoIP Management Console User Manual Algorithm Each time a PCoIP device boots it executes the MC DNS-Based Discovery algorithm if the PCoIP MC DNS-Based Discovery Prefix setting is non-blank. The algorithm uses the setting and the domain name hierarchy to search for a MC. The PCoIP device obtains the domain name string from the DHCP server using DHCP options 15.
PCoIP Management Console User Manual ... Attempts 1 to 3 use the domain name from DHCP options 15 string. Failing to contact the MC, the device uses the DHCP options 12 string for attempts 4 to 7. Failing transmissions for attempt 4 to 7, the device cycles back to using DHCP options 15. 1.3.3.3 Manual Device Discovery Manual device discovery is not an automated discovery mechanism.
PCoIP Management Console User Manual Figure 1-5: Management Console Manual Device Discovery Feature 1.3.4 AutoConfig Any PCoIP Zero Clients newly discovered by the MC may be automatically added to a group and have that group’s profile applied without user interaction. One or more AutoConfig rules can be created that allow one group to have one or more criteria defined.
PCoIP Management Console User Manual 4. If the group‘s profile contains a firmware rule then the firmware is applied if it passes the criteria and the device is rebooted. 5. The remainder of the profile‘s properties are now applied to the device. 6. After applying the profile‘s OSD logo and properties the Zero Client will be rebooted. 1.4 Management Console and Firmware Version Compatibility MC Version Supports FW Versions Fully Configures FW Versions 1.0.26, 1.0.28 0.19-current 0.19-1.10 1.1.20 0.

PCoIP Management Console User Manual 2 Installation and Setup This section describes how to install and setup the MC. It also describes how to migrate from an old version of the MC to a new version. 2.1 Management Console Host System Requirements The MC server machine must meet the requirements of the virtualization environment that the MC VM will run in. 1. The MC server machine must meet the requirements of the VMware Player.
PCoIP Management Console User Manual 2.3 Installing the Management Console using VMware Player 1. The MC is distributed as a VMware virtual machine (VM) contained in a zip file. The VM is run using VMware Player. VMware Player is a free application that can be downloaded from http://www.vmware.com/download/player/. Follow the directions provided by VMware to download and install this application on the MC host machine. 2.
PCoIP Management Console User Manual Note: Along the bottom of the window the VMware Player describes how to interact with the VM and how to return to the host OS. Figure 2-1: MC VM Console in VMware Player 2.6 Migrating to a New Version of the Management Console Periodically new releases of the MC will be released. These releases include support for new features and/or include bugs fixes.
PCoIP Management Console User Manual When a deployment installs a new version of the MC the PCoIP Host and Zero Client devices may loose contact with the MC. This problem will not occur if the IP address of the new instance of the MC is the same as the old version of the MC. Administrators are recommended to assign a static IP address to the MC.
PCoIP Management Console User Manual 3. Section 2.6.2 above lists the settings that will and will not be imported by the new version of the MC when a database is restored. Prior to shutting down the old version of the MC write down the values of the settings that will not be imported. 4. Shutdown the old version of the MC. Refer to section 3.8. 5. Install and begin running to the new version of the MC. 6. Upload the database to the MC from the host computer. Refer to section 4.8.1. 7.
PCoIP Management Console User Manual 3 Virtual Machine Features The top level menu of the PCoIP Management Console is shown in Figure 3-1. This menu appears after opening the MC in the VMware Player. This section describes the features accessed and controlled through this interface, which is referred to as the “MC VM console” throughout this document. Figure 3-1: Management Console VM Console 3.
PCoIP Management Console User Manual If the deployment does not install a MC DNS SRV record the administrators should configure the PCoIP MC DNS-Based Discovery Prefix field of each PCoIP device to equal the hostname prefix of the MC. Section 1.3.3.2 provides additional details on this field and the system requirements associated with using it.
PCoIP Management Console User Manual broadcast address and domain are optional and can be left blank. After the IP address settings are updated the MC restarts the network interface using the new settings. 3.4.3 Configure DNS The Configure DNS option allows the user to configure the Domain Name Server(s) and search domain(s) used by the MC. The MC queries the DNS Server(s) to determine if the MC DNS SRV record and Connection Broker DNS SRV record are present.
PCoIP Management Console User Manual 3.5.1 Backup Database The Backup database to archive command allows an administrator to take a snapshot of the current database contents and store it in an archive. The archive resides within the MC VM. This command should be used in conjunction with the download database command on the Database Management web page to backup and store the contents of the database somewhere outside of the MC VM. Refer to section 4.8.
PCoIP Management Console User Manual 3.8 Halt Virtual Machine To perform a clean shutdown of the MC VM select the Halt virtual machine option on the MC VM console. The MC VM can be restarted at a later time. When the MC VM is restarted the MC database is restored to the state it was in when the MC VM was last stopped.
PCoIP Management Console User Manual 4 Web Interface The MC web interface is the primary mechanism used by administrators to manage all PCoIP devices in a deployment. This section describes the features accessed and controlled through this interface. 4.1 Accessing the Management Console Web User Interface Connect a computer to the same network the MC server machine is connected to. Note this computer can be the server machine itself.
