Managing roaming clients
Implementing roaming
Enable roaming and roll out the hierarchal list of servers
Enabling roaming requires adding a value to the registry of each roam server,
and rolling out server list data. When you run RoamAdmn, it communicates
with each server named at the beginning of each line in the hierarchical list of
servers. On each server, RoamAdmn adds a registry value containing the servers
at the next level down in the hierarchy. If the server cannot be reached, that
server is bypassed.
To enable roaming
Add the DWORDs to the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\INTEL\LANDesk\VirusProtect6\
CurrentVersion\ProductControl\RoamServer
To roll out the hierarchical list of servers
1
Copy RoamAdmn to the computer from which you want to work while
rolling out the hierarchical list of servers to the roaming servers.
2
At the command prompt, type the following:
RoamAdmn /import <serverlist.txt>
where <serverlist.txt> is the name of the hierarchical server list that you
created.
Roaming server example
A corporation has a computer from which all roam servers are visible. The
Serverlist.txt file includes the following lines:
USASvr Parent 1 USAWestSvr,USAEastSvr
EuropeSvr Parent 1 EUROEastSvr,EUROWestSvr
AsiaSvr Parent 1 JapanSvr,KoreaSvr
Table 6-3
describes the ServerList.txt data as it appears in each roam server’s
registry.
