Management
Situation
An
administrator can disable the Audible or Visible signal while
remote viewing, as well as keeping the wallpaper
the same.
There is a
slight flicker on initiating the Remote View of the
workstation.
Resolution
This is unavoidable. When the
mirror driver is used, the flicker is a bit more noticeable. It can
be substantially reduced by switching to the hook driver. However,
it cannot be totally done away with since the screen image has to
be captured completely at the beginning of the session. You will at
the least see the mouse pointer flickering once.
To enable
the hook driver, do the following:
1. Run\RemoteManagement\RMAgent\RMSetDrv.exe
/hook
2. Restart
the system.
Note that
there are disadvantages of using the hook driver since its tightly
coupled with the actual video adapter. A number of
problem were addressed by going to the mirror
driver, the mirror driver is preferred.
Change Log
9/29/08 Removed "This will happen
even if the optimization is totally disabled." from the resolution section to make it less cluttered.
