Channel Protocol Engine properties (server-specific)

Attributes on the Channel Protocol Engine Properties For... panel of Array Manager let you tune Secure Global Desktop channel processes for a particular array member. The Secure Global Desktop channel is used to detect information about the client, for example to detect client drives or audio devices.

The attributes apply independently to each Secure Global Desktop server.

From the command line, use tarantella config to view and edit these settings.

Changes to these attributes take effect for new Protocol Engines only. Existing Protocol Engines are not affected.
