HP xw2x220c Key Features

●Control of Linux Resources from the HP SAM administrative console:

◦SAM 3.2 adds support for remotely performing the following operations on Linux-based resources from the Resources page of the HP SAM administrative console:

—Shutdown

—Restart

—Logoff

◦These operations were previously only functional for Windows-based resources.

◦The “Send Message” operation is still not supported on Linux resources.

◦The SAM 3.2 versions of the SAM Linux Blade Service and the SAM Server are required for this feature to work.

◦A certificate from the domain certificate authority must be installed on the HP SAM website to enable this feature.

●New SAM Policies for RGS Experience Properties:

◦RGS 5.4.5 introduces new RGS settings to help provide a better experience in a WAN environment which has reduced bandwidth. Those setting include choosing between fixed or self-adjusting image quality, as well as setting the minimum image quality and update rate when using the self-adjusting option. SAM 3.2 gives the SAM administrator the ability to force these settings to end users via SAM server policy. Consult the RGS User Guide for details regarding usage of these new RGS settings.
