Configuring Z and I Emulator for Web sessions

In addition to setting up your HTML files, you need to define sessions for your users. If you are using the HTML-based model, then you configure your sessions in the Deployment Wizard at the same time that you create the HTML files. Otherwise, if you are using the configuration server-based model or the combined model, or using one of the predefined clients, you will need to create groups, users, and sessions in the configuration server using one of the administration clients.

There is a full range of options available to you when you are configuring your sessions, regardless of whether you need to use the Deployment Wizard or one of the administration clients:

  • Session properties. All of the session properties can be configured, including connection information, security, etc. Each of the fields may be locked to prevent users from updating them.
  • Runtime options. When configuring a session, you can launch the session and configure features such as session size and placement, colors, toolbar customization, and macros. You can configure runtime options in the Deployment Wizard and the Full administration client.
  • Disabling user functions. You can disable almost any of the functions that users normally receive as part of their Z and I Emulator for Web session, such as bookmarking, creating or running macros, etc.
