Access the Session Prelaunch configuration menu from the Sessions > Settings tab of the Admintool, by clicking on the “Session Prelaunch configuration” tile.

Aperçu

The session prelaunch feature enables TSplus Remote Access administrators to configure user sessions to launch before a scheduled time. The idea is to prepare and load the session of every configured user ahead of time, so that once a user connects, they capture their specific session. This can cut connection wait times from minutes to seconds.

Prérequis

Prelaunch nécessite que plusieurs prérequis soient satisfaits.

1 - Afin de capturer une session, capture session mode must be enabled. Esto significa que no podrá beneficiarse de esta función si la configuración de múltiples sesiones es obligatoria para sus usuarios.

2 - Since the prepared session loaded ahead of time needs to be present (not logged off) when the user connects and captures it, a minimum of 2 hours of idle time for disconnected session must be allowed. You can of course also set the session settings so that it never logs off a disconnected session.

3 - Dado que la sesión preparada se desconecta una vez cargada para reducir el uso general de recursos, the session settings must be configured not to automatically log off disconnected sessions.

Important note! Each configured user will need to authenticate at least once through the TSplus Web Portal after the session prelaunch feature is enabled to make the TSplus services able to open the configured user session.

Compatibilités de pré-lancement de session

Session prelaunch es compatible con sesiones HTML5 y sesiones RDP genéricas abiertas a través de un cliente generado o mstsc.

It is however not compatible with the Remote App connection or custom RDP connections made for opening a specific program.
As a result, connections coming from the TSplus Web Application Portal are not supported.

Activer la fonctionnalité

To enable the session prelaunch feature, simply click on the tile labeled “Session prelaunch is disabled - click to enable” near the top of the window.

If any of the prerequisites aren’t met when enabling Session Prelaunch, you will be asked if you want to automatically configure session settings to meet the prerequisites and use the feature. Note that changing session settings may require a reboot.

Testen Sie den Sitzungs-Vorstart

Once enabled, you will be able to quickly test the feature by clicking on the button “Try prelaunch now” at the top.

In the windows that appears, enter user credentials so that TSplus services can prelaunch the session for this specific user.

Click on “Prelaunch” to start and load a new session for this user.
Wait until it is fully loaded, and then click on “Connect” to capture the freshly loaded session.

Gérer les utilisateurs et groupes configurés

To add session prelaunch users and groups, simply click on “Add user or group”.
To edit or remove a configured user, select the matching user/group in the configured user/group list, then click on “Schedule” to change the ‘prelaunch before’ time, or the “Remove” button to remove the user.

After clicking on “Add user or group”, you will be asked for the user/group name to configure as well as the time before which the session needs to be loaded, called “prelaunch before” here.
You can also configure this user/group to always have a session prelaunched when connecting instead of having to schedule it by selecting “Yes” on the “Always prelaunch” option.
