1 Welcome This guide is intended for administrators of HP thin client models that are based on the HP ThinPro operating system. It is assumed that you are using the latest image provided by HP and that you log on as an administrator when making configurations or accessing administration utilities. Finding more resources Resource Contents HP support website Image updates and add-ons http://www.hp.
Document organization This guide is divided into the following chapters and appendixes: 2 ● Getting started on page 3—Describes the basic steps to deploy a thin client running HP ThinPro. ● Navigating the interface on page 5—Provides an overview of the different components of the interface. ● Control Panel configurations on page 8—Describes the connection-related settings and configurations in the Control Panel and details some of the more advanced configurations.
2 Getting started Choosing a management service Thin clients running HP ThinPro can be managed by either HP Smart Client Services or HP Device Manager (HPDM). You can use whichever management service is best for your deployment. HP Smart Client Services is optimized for use with Smart Zero. This option allows for zero management. HPDM is ideal for large environments that contain thin clients with a variety of different operating systems.
NOTE: This initial connection wizard offers a quicker setup process than the standard Connection Manager wizard. If you plan to configure a single thin client and then copy and deploy its configurations to other thin clients using HP ThinState (see HP ThinState on page 19), use the Control Panel to make all of the desired configurations first. See Navigating the interface on page 5 and Control Panel configurations on page 8 for more information.
3 Navigating the interface This chapter discusses the following topics: ● Using the taskbar ● Using the Connection Manager controls ● Viewing system information Using the taskbar Table 3-1 Taskbar components 1 Connection Manager—Use to start, stop, add, edit, and delete remote connections. See Using the Connection Manager controls on page 6 for more information. 2 Control Panel—Use to configure the client, switch between Administrator Mode and User Mode, and check for software updates.
Using the Connection Manager controls 1 Start—Starts the selected connection. 2 Stop—Stops the selected connection. 3 Edit—Opens a Connection Manager specific to the selected connection type (such as the Citrix Connection Manager), allowing you to edit settings that are specific to the selected connection only. 4 Delete—Deletes the selected connection. 5 Add—Allows you to add a new connection. NOTE: See Comparison of ThinPro and Smart Zero on page 1 for a list of the available connection types.

11 HP Smart Client Services HP Smart Client Services is a set of server-side tools that enable you to configure client profiles that can be distributed to large numbers of thin clients. This function is called Automatic Update. Clients detect an Automatic Update server upon startup and configure themselves accordingly. This simplifies device installation and maintenance.
Obtaining HP Smart Client Services To obtain HP Smart Client Services: 1. Go to http://www.hp.com/support. 2. Search for the thin client model. HP Smart Client Services can be found under the Software System Management category of the Drivers, Software & Firmware page. Viewing the Automatic Update website 1. On the server desktop, select Start > Control Panel, and then click Administrative Tools. 2. Double-click Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager. 3.
NOTE: Broadcast updates work only if the client is on the same subnet as the server. TIP: To verify that the broadcast updates are working, run the Profile Editor and make some changes. Connect the thin client and verify that it has downloaded the new profile. If it has not, see Troubleshooting on page 66. Using the DHCP tag update method On the Windows Server 2003 and Windows Server 2008 systems, DHCP tagging enables a client to update.
Using the manual update method Use the manual update method to connect a client to a specific server for an update. Also, use this method if you want to test an update on a single client before pushing the update to many clients, or if you have specific updates to be installed on only one or two clients. NOTE: Be sure you specify the hostname of the manual server in the profile that you are updating to. Otherwise the settings reset to automatic when downloading the profile.
12 Using the Profile Editor HP Smart Client Services contains the Profile Editor, which allows administrators to create client profiles and upload them to the Automatic Update server. TIP: In addition to creating a new client profile, you can edit an existing profile that was exported using HP ThinState. An HP ThinPro profile contains the connections, settings, and customizations that were configured using the Connection Manager and various Control Panel utilities.
Selecting the platform of a client profile Use the Platform link in the Profile Editor to access the Platform pane, which can be used to configure the following settings: ● Client software versions compatible with your hardware ● Optional client kits that provide additional registry settings To set up the client profile platform: 1. In the Platform pane, under Smart Zero Client versions > OS Build ID, select an OS Build ID. TIP: Be sure to create a different profile for each hardware type.
Enabling or disabling user configurations on clients 1. In the Registry settings tree, navigate to root > users > user > apps. 2. Expand the folder for the menu item to be either enabled or disabled and click on the authorized setting. 3.
● HP Smart Client Services ● Web browser stores To import other certificates to a client profile: 1. In the Additional Configuration Files pane, click Add a file. 2. Click Import File, locate the certificate, and then click Open. NOTE: The certificate should be formatted as a .pem or .crt file. 3. In the Path field, set the path to the following: /usr/local/share/ca-certificates 4. Click Save to finish adding the certificate to the client profile. 5.
Obtaining the printer settings Before configuring printer ports, obtain the printer's settings. If available, check the printer's documentation before going further. If it is not available, follow these steps: 1. For most printers, press and hold the Feed button while turning the device on. 2. After a few seconds, release the Feed button. This allows the printer to enter a test mode and print the required information.
NOTE: For basic or test printing, the Generic Manufacturer or Generic/Text Only printer usually works. 7. If prompted to keep the existing driver and it is known to work, keep it, and then click Next. 8. Assign a name to the printer. To use it as the default printer, select Yes, and then click Next. 9. To share the printer, select Share name and assign it a share name. Otherwise, click Next. 10. On the next page, you may request a test print.

Insert the USB flash drive that contains the saved system diagnostic file, and then copy Diagnostic.tgz to the desktop. 3. Right-click Diagnostic.tgz and select 7-zip > Extract files. 4. Open the newly created folder named Diagnostic and repeat step 3 on Diagnostic.tar. Uncompressing the system diagnostic files in Linux- or Unix-based systems 1.
A USB updates When USB updates are enabled (see Customization Center on page 18), you can use a USB flash drive to simultaneously install multiple add-ons and certificates, as well as deploy a profile. To perform USB updates: 1. Place the desired files onto a USB flash drive. NOTE: The files can be placed in the root directory or in subfolders. 2. Connect the USB flash drive to the thin client.
B BIOS tools There are two kinds of BIOS tools for HP ThinPro: ● BIOS settings tool—Used to retrieve or modify BIOS settings ● BIOS flashing tool—Used to update the BIOS BIOS settings tool The following table describes the syntax for the BIOS settings tool. Syntax Description hptc-bios-cfg –G [options] [filename] Retrieves the current BIOS settings and saves them to the specified file so they can be viewed or modified (CPQSETUP.TXT by default).
C Resizing the flash drive partition When a thin client running HP ThinPro is shipped from the factory, the image flashed on it has a size of 1 GB, regardless of the total size of the flash drive. This makes it easier to customize the image and deploy it to other clients that might have a smaller flash drive. To use the entire space of the flash drive, you have to modify the partition size and expand the file system to take up that additional space. This can be accomplished using the resize-image script.
D Customizing the Smart Zero login screen Customizing the screen background This section describes the common attributes and elements used in customizing the client login screen background. There is one directory per connection type—plus a default style—that specifies the style elements of the connection’s background image and login window style. In a style directory, the file bgConfig.rtf specifies the elements in the desktop's background window. The syntax of the bgConfig.
