ACP - ThinManager and ThinManager Ready Thin Clients
 

To fully realize the savings of a Terminal Server environment you need the right tools. ACP has responded with ThinManager® which lets you configure, maintain, upgrade and replace Client devices on your network quickly and efficiently. Its intuitive Windows Explorer®-like interface provides Management of all connected ThinManager Ready Thin Clients, PCs running WinTMC and Terminal Servers. And because ThinManager is a Thin Client enabling technology, each connected ThinManager Ready Thin Client device is guaranteed to have the same internal software, assuring uniformity of operation across a wide variety of models. This architecture delivers the lowest total cost of ownership and delivers real ROI to current installations.

ThinManager Key Benefits
  • Centralized management
  • No local configuration or operating system on thin client (zero client)
  • Redundant ThinManager Servers
  • Auto-synchronization between ThinManager Servers
  • Management of terminal servers from ThinManager
  • Terminal shadowing from within ThinManager
  • Terminal-to-terminal shadowing
  • Unlimited licensing plans

Quicker installs with less configuration
No hard drive means no software to install on the Thin Clients. Terminal Server environments allow a single install of each application for use by all connected Clients. Configuration Wizards make setup easier than ever before.

Lower cost
Lower cost CPU, no floppy or hard drives, and less memory means Thin Clients are less expensive.

Less maintenance
Maintenance is reduced to a few servers in a central location. The constant maintenance of distributed PC operating systems is eliminated with Thin Clients.

Automatic Failover
In the event of a Terminal Server failure, the client will fail over to a back up server and continue working. Imagine the peace of mind this provides.

WinTMC
ThinManager 3 supports WinTMC, ACP’s software client that provides a Windows PC the functionality of a Thin Client. It also gives ThinManager the ability to manage the PC, and even shadow its desktop, whether or not the user is running a terminal session.

Improved At-A-Glance Management
Manage your entire network from ThinManager by viewing all ThinManager Servers and all Terminal Servers in one tree. See which Clients are online and follow graphically the network path from the Clients back to all the servers. Configure and maintain each Client individually in ThinManager, or put the clients into groups, and manage many Clients at once.

Failover
ThinManager allows every Client to be assigned to several Terminal Servers. If the current Terminal Server fails, the Client will switch to another designated Terminal Server, allowing the unit to continue functioning in the event of a server failure.

Instant Failover
The Instant Failover Module allows Clients to run sessions on two Terminal Servers simultaneously. If the primary Terminal Server fails, the Client will instantly switch to the waiting session.

SmartSession
Imagine a computer network that can make decisions about how to best allocate its resources. That’s what SmartSession does for your terminal server network. As resources are used, SmartSession decides where to assign users to keep the Terminal Servers running at peak efficiency. SmartSession’s unique Queuing feature helps administrators manage the terminal server’s processor load by pausing individual clients before connection if necessary.

Remote Administration
View multiple servers and clients from a single ThinManager screen. This allows management of the Terminal Server network from a single machine regardless of how many clients or servers make up the system.

MultiSession
Simultaneously connect two or more terminal servers and run the applications you need. Switch between your sessions using a mouse click or keystroke. Now on ThinManager Ready thin client can give you access to all of your servers and programs.
