L300/L230/L130 User Manual

After a group has been created, the user may choose modify the group to add hosts, remove hosts, or alter the Group Name. To accommodate flexible failover scenarios, a server is allowed to be a member of multiple groups, and can be included in the same connection group multiple times.

Connection Group - Auto Rollover

NComputing L-series devices and vSpace software have been designed from the beginning to minimize administrative management requirements, and the L300 builds on that legacy. The L300 has a new auto rollover feature that can provide extended control for those customers needing those capabilities

When an L-series device is configured for “Autoconnect,” anytime the device is power cycled, and anytime a user logs off the device, the device automatically attempts to connect to the vSpace server specified in the autoconnect parameter.

The L300 adds the concept of a “server group” to the autoconnect feature which in turn creates the auto rollover feature.

A “vSpace server group” is a collection of one or more individual vSpace servers specified by a name that’s currently defined from inside each L300 devices setup interface.

If a server group contains only one name (or IP address), then the L300 attempts to connect to that server until successful or until the L300 is reset. If the server group contains more than one name (or IP address), the L300 tries to connect to the first server in the list for 5 seconds, and if no successful connection is made, the
