Add or Remove Computers

You can add other computers or remove computers from your MultiPoint Services system by using MultiPoint Manager. Adding other PCs to MultiPoint Manager allows the MultiPoint Dashboard to orchestrate any user's session when logged on to that PC in the same way it can for MultiPoint stations.

To add or remove servers in MultiPoint

  1. Open MultiPoint Manager in station mode, and then click the Home tab.

  2. Under computer name Tasks, click Add or remove MultiPoint servers. The Add or Remove MultiPoint Servers screen launches and begins discovering other servers on the local network subnet that can be managed with MultiPoint Manager.

  3. Do one of the following:

    • To add a server: In the Available list, click a server that you want to manage with MultiPoint Manager, and then click Add. If the administrator user account and password for the server are different than the account you are currently logged on with, you are prompted to provide the account information.

    • To add a server that is not on the subnet: In the MultiPoint Server name field, type the name of the server you want to add, and then click Manually Add.

    • To remove a server: In the Managed list, click a server that you want to remove from management, and then click Remove.
