1 Getting started This guide is for administrators of HP thin clients based on the HP ThinPro operating system and assumes that you will log in to the system as an administrator when modifying system configurations or using administrative tools as described in this guide. NOTE: HP ThinPro has two possible OS configurations: ThinPro and Smart Zero. HP ThinPro-based thin clients can be purchased with either OS configuration as the default, and you can switch between OS configurations via Control Panel.
Choosing an OS configuration HP ThinPro includes two OS configurations, each tailored for a different thin client deployment scenario: ● ● The ThinPro OS configuration is the complete version of the operating system and is the most suitable for multipurpose environments that require advanced administration or end-user customization.
Choosing a remote management service Regardless of the OS configuration, there are two different remote management services that you can use to manage HP ThinPro-based thin clients: ● HP Device Manager (HPDM) is ideal for large environments with a variety of operating systems, including a mixture of HP ThinPro-based and Windows®-based thin clients. HPDM provides a greater variety of management options than HP Smart Client Services. For more information or to download HPDM, go to http://www.hp.com/go/hpdm.
Switching between administrator mode and user mode ▲ Right-click the desktop, and then select Administrator/User Mode Switch from the menu. For more information about the desktop, see Desktop on page 5. – or – Select Administrator/User Mode Switch in Control Panel. For more information about Control Panel, see Taskbar on page 6 and Control Panel on page 38. NOTE: The first time you switch to administrator mode, you are prompted to set up an administrator password.

NOTE: For more information about RDP multi-monitor sessions, see the HP ThinPro white paper True MultiMonitor Mode for RDP (available in English only). RDP multimedia redirection Multimedia redirection (MMR) is a technology that integrates with Windows Media Player on the remote host and streams the encoded media to the RDP client instead of playing it on the remote host and re-encoding it via RDP.
Windows Explorer, with the name on ; for example, Bill_USB on HP04ab598100ff. There are three restrictions to this type of redirection. ● The device will not appear in the taskbar on the remote host with an icon to eject the device. Because of this, make sure to give the device a sufficient amount of time to sync data after a copy before removing the device to be sure that the device does not corrupt.
RDP audio redirection By default, high-level audio redirection will redirect audio from the remote host to the thin client. Basic voice control might need to be set up, and RDP 7.1 contains a number of advanced audio redirection features that might require additional configuration. See the following notes about using audio redirection with RDP: ● RDP delivers the highest quality audio as the network bandwidth allows. RDP reduces audio quality to play on low-bandwidth connections.

7 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. HP ThinPro detects an Automatic Update server upon startup and configures settings accordingly. This simplifies device installation and maintenance.
Viewing the Automatic Update website 1. On the server desktop, select Start > Control Panel, and then select Administrative Tools. 2. Double-click Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager. 3. In the left pane of the IIS Manager, expand the following items: “Server name” > Sites > HP Automatic Update > auto-update NOTE: The physical location where the Automatic Update files are stored is as follows: C:\Program Files (x86)\Hewlett-Packard\HP Smart Client Service\auto-update Creating an Automatic U
5. Select the Finish button in the Current profile pane to exit Profile Editor. 6. Restart the thin client that uses the specified MAC address to initiate the Automatic Update process. Updating thin clients Using the broadcast update method To do a broadcast update, plug the thin client into the same network as the update server. A broadcast update relies on HP Smart Client Services, which works with IIS to automatically push updates to the thin client.
Using the DNS alias update method During system startup, Automatic Update attempts to resolve the DNS alias auto-update. If that host name resolves, it attempts to check for updates at http://auto-update:18287. This update method enables thin clients to access a single update server across the entire domain, thus simplifying management for deployments with many subnets and DHCP servers.
8 Profile Editor HP Smart Client Services contains 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. A client profile contains the connections, settings, and customizations that were configured using Connection Manager and various Control Panel items.
NOTE: If a client kit is installed, it is displayed automatically in the Client Kits box, and additional registry settings will be available on the Registry screen. 2. Set the configuration to either standard (ThinPro) or zero (Smart Zero). NOTE: For older image versions, this setting is greyed out and set to zero automatically. Configuring a default connection for a client profile To configure a default connection for a client profile: 1.
NOTE: Typically, setting the owner and group as root and the permissions as 644 is satisfactory. If a special owner, group, or permissions are required, refer to standard Unix® file permissions for guidelines on changing the file details. 5. Select Save to finish adding the configuration file to the client profile. NOTE: A file installed as part of a profile will automatically overwrite any existing file on the file system at the destination path.
Serial or parallel printer configuration You can use Profile Editor to set up the serial or parallel printer ports. A USB printer automatically maps when plugged in. 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.
NOTE: The port you need is in the section of ports labeled TS###, where ### is a number between 000–009, 033–044. The appropriate port depends on your hostname and the printer you want to install. For example, with a hostname of ZTAHENAKOS and a serial printer, select the port with (ZTAHENAKOS:COM1). For a parallel printer, select (ZTAHENAKOS:LPT1). The TS### is assigned by the server, so it will not be the same every time. 6. Select the manufacturer and driver for your printer.
9 Troubleshooting Troubleshooting network connectivity 1. Ping the desired server by doing the following: a. Select the System Information button on the taskbar, and then select the Net Tools tab. b. Under Select Tool, select Ping. c. In the Target Host box, enter the server address, and then select Start Process. If the ping is successful, the system will display the following output: PING 10.30.8.52 (10.30.8.52) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 10.30.8.52: icmp_seq-1 ttl=64 time=0.
TIP: You can change the Debug level setting in the System Logs tab of the System Information window to specify the amount of information to be included in the diagnostic report. This information may be requested by HP for troubleshooting. Because the system resets log files when it reboots, be sure to capture logs before a reboot. Saving system diagnostic data 1. Insert a USB flash drive into the thin client. 2. Select the System Information button on the taskbar, and then select the System Logs tab.
Viewing files in the /var/log folder The useful file in the /var/log folder is Xorg.0.log. Viewing files in the /etc folder The /etc folder contains the file system at the time the system diagnostics were run.
A USB updates When USB updates are enabled (see Customization Center on page 46), 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 These tools can be run via an X terminal. BIOS settings tool The following table describes the syntax for the BIOS settings tool. NOTE: Changes do not take effect until the next reboot.
C Resizing the flash drive partition IMPORTANT: HP thin clients that ship from the factory with HP ThinPro use the entire flash drive. The image capture methods capture the smallest possible image, allowing images from larger flash drives to be deployed onto smaller flash drives that have enough space for the captured image. Resizing the flash drive partition should no longer be necessary for HP thin clients that ship from the factory with HP ThinPro.
D Registry keys The HP ThinPro registry keys are grouped into folders and can be modified in several different ways: ● Using a _File and Registry task in HPDM ● Using the Registry Editor component of Profile Editor and then deploying the new profile ● Using the Registry Editor in the HP ThinPro user interface, which is available by typing regeditor in an X terminal. Each top-level section in this appendix corresponds to one of the top-level registry folders.
