D Glossary

Access Device—A device such as a thin client used to access HP SAM to connect to computing resources.

Active Directory—A Microsoft Windows directory service that stores an enterprise’s information and settings in a central, organized, accessible database. Active Directory allows administrators to assign policies, deploy programs, and apply critical updates to an entire organization.

Administrator Group—A group to which you can assign users in order to grant or revoke access to specific capabilities in the HP SAM administrative console.

Asset Group—A collection of access devices, users, computing resources, roles, monitor layout IDs, policies, logs and reports that is under the control of an administrator group.

Client—An access device that sends requests to the HP SAM web server to get an available computing resource to which to connect.

CSP—Cryptographic service provider. A software library that provides hardware and software-based encryption or decryption services.

Computing Resource—A desktop session; a computing resource such as a blade PC or a Blade Workstation or a virtual machine.

Data Center—A grouping of enclosures in HP SAM which enables saving of enclosure passwords (which is needed for the client side power cycle feature.)

Dedicated Resource—Specific computing resource(s) assigned to a user. Also referred to as a Static Assignment.

Description (blade)—Usually given to the blade by the blade manufacturer. It can be changed, if desired.

Follow-meroaming—Capability for the user to connect and reconnect to the same session while using different access devices in different locations.

Gateway—See web server.

Global Policy—Sets all users’ connection environment. It can be overridden by Group or Individual Policy assignments.

Group Policy—Sets connection environment for a group of users. This policy overrides Global but can be overridden by individual policy assignment.

Individual Policy—Sets connection environment for a specific user. This policy assignment overrides group which overrides global policy rules.

Monitor Layout ID—Identification name for a collection of settings that controls how multiple sessions are mapped onto the display of an access device and other related settings.

OU—Organizational Unit

Policy—The policy defines settings to be forced upon users from the HP SAM server. It controls the appearance of the desktop, taskbar, command access, sound availability, etc. There are five levels of policy: Global, Role, OU, SG, User (User settings override SG, and so forth).

Public—A public role is one that is accessible to all users in Active Directory.
