Last updated
This information can be accessed by clicking on a specific WorkSpace in the 'WorkSpaces' section of the Admin tab. When selected, it provide a detail overview of the WorkSpace and the User.
From the dropdown menu at the top right, you will see a list of possible actions, depending on your permissions. Some examples include:
Refresh: Updates the screen with the latest information.
RDP: If RDP is enabled in the Options > Settings menu, this will download an RDP file with the necessary details to connect to a user’s WorkSpace.
Note: RDP is not a session that shadows the user. It simply allows administrators to connect to a WorkSpace for support purposes
Reboot: Restarts a user’s WorkSpace.
Recovery Reboot: Moves a WorkSpace to a new host if it’s on a faulty one and won't start.
Restore: Restores the WorkSpace to the last known good backup (automatically taken by AWS every 12 hours).
Rebuild: Rebuilds the WorkSpace to its original bundle/image, retaining the D:\ drive (or /home in Linux) contents from the last backup, while resetting the C:\ drive (or root / in Linux).
Stop: Stops a user’s WorkSpace.
Terminate: Permanently deletes a WorkSpace, resulting in the loss of all data.
Schedule Termination: Schedules a WorkSpace termination at a specified date and time.
Change WorkSpace Type: Allows switching to a different instance type (can only be changed every 24 hours).
Change WorkSpace Mode: Switches between ALWAYS_ON and AUTO_STOP modes.
Change WorkSpace Volumes: Increases the size of the C:\ and D:\ volumes (cannot decrease size).
Change Protocol: If a WorkSpace was initially created with the PCoIP protocol, the 'Change Protocol' option allows you to switch between PCoIP and Amazon's WSP protocol, with a limit of two switches within 24 hours. The change of protocol will initiate an instant reboot
Manage Tags: Adds tags to a WorkSpace.
You can also use Fixed Tagging to provide consistent tagging on your WorkSpaces.
Change Reboot Hour: If "Auto Reboot" is enabled in Options > Settings, this allows you to set a specific reboot time for individual WorkSpaces. By default, WorkSpaces do not reboot automatically, but this option enables scheduling a reboot at a time that best suits your users.
If you prefer not to have your WorkSpace rebooted or rebuilt according to a schedule, you can set a user WorkSpace tag as NoRebuild = True
and/or NoReboot = True
.
Migrate: to migrate a user from one bundle to another.
