Shutting Down, Restarting, and Suspending
Shutting Down, Restarting, and Suspending
When you are finished using your thin client, you can click Computer > Shutdown and choose:
•Shutdown—Shuts down and turns off your thin client.
•Restart—Shuts down and restarts your thin client.
•Suspend—Places the thin client in Standby mode to preserve power. To exit Standby mode, click the mouse.
Tip If the ReadyMode feature is enabled and you shut down the thin client, the session ends, the power button LED is put in a state of OFF, and the thin client is placed in Standby mode to preserve power. When you press the power button, the thin client exits Standby mode and immediately prompts the user with the login dialog box. For more information on ReadyMode, see Cisco Virtualization Experience Client 6215 INI Files Reference Guide.
