General tab
How do I get to this dialog box?
From X Manager or X Manager for Domains or the X Administrative Console
-
(Administrative Console only) Click the Domain Definitions tab.
-
In the left pane, select an existing session definition or click
next to Sessions Definitions to create a new one. -
In the Session Definition pane on the right, click the General tab.
The options are:
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Session name | The name for this session definition. This name identifies your session in the Session Definitions list. |
| Show clients on X terminal desktop | Select to run all clients in a single window, and have your display appear similar to the standard display of an X terminal. This is sometimes referred to as "single window" mode. This option is required for XDMCP connections. |
| Show clients on my desktop | Select to run clients in separate windows like operating system applications. This is sometimes referred to as "multiple window" mode. |
| On last client | Specify what action should happen when the last client is closed. For X Client sessions, this action occurs after the amount of time specified by Delay (secs). For XDMCP connections, this action occurs immediately when you log out. |
| Reset session - Reset the session. Resetting returns the server to the same state it had before clients used the session. | |
| Stop session - Close the session. | |
| Stop session and exit X Manager - Close the session. If this is the last running session, also exit X Manager. | |
| Do nothing - Continue running the session without a reset. This is useful for applications that expect your environment to remain unchanged. | |
| Delay (secs) | Specify the number of seconds of inactivity that must pass before the session is reset or stopped. If a client connects during this interval, the Reset session or Stop session setting is ignored. This setting applies X Client definitions, not XDMCP connections. |
| Note: This option does not apply if the session is running an XDMCP desktop. When you log off of the desktop, the On last client action occurs immediately (no timeout). | |
| Automatically start session | Automatically start this session when X Manager starts. |
| Disable sharing | Disables sharing for X clients and XDMCP connections that use this session. |
| Limit number of session instances to | Sets a maximum limit on the number of instances of this session that can be launched by a user. This does not limit the number of clients that can run using the same session instance. It does not affect how many instances of other session types can run. |
| Note: In domain mode, all sessions for any given user are known to the domain, and the domain enforces the limit per user. A user cannot log in to multiple instances of X Manager for Domains and start the specified number of session instances on each X Manager for Domains. |
