The following parameters can be found on the OSD PCoIP Connection Manager page.

OSD PCoIP Connection Manager Parameters

Parameter	Description
Server URI	Enter the Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) for the PCoIP Connection Manager, Broker, or HP Anyware host. The URI must be in the form https://{ host FQDN } or https://{ ip address }.
Desktop Name to Select	Enter the desktop name used by the client when starting a session.
Auto Connect	This field determines the client’s auto connect behavior after startup: Enabled: The client automatically connects with the connection server after startup and a PCoIP session ends, bypassing the OSD Connect page. Disabled: The client does not automatically connect with the connection server. Enabled With Retry On Error: The client will continuously attempt to contact the connection server. After a connection failure, the client waits before attempting to connect again. This wait time increases with each successive failure. The wait interval is not configurable. Devices running firmware 4.1.1 or lower do not support Retry On Error behavior and will always perform a single attempt to contact the connection server when this option is selected. After enabling Auto Connect, the client must be power-cycled for the change to take effect.
Remember Username	When enabled, the user name text box automatically populates with the last username entered.
Auto Launch If Only One Desktop	When enabled, users are automatically connected to a provisioned desktop after user credentials are entered. This feature only applies to users who are entitled to a single desktop. It does not apply to users entitled to multiple virtual desktops.
Use OSD Logo for Login Banner	When enabled, the OSD logo banner appears at the top of login screens in place of the default banner.
Enable Peer Loss Overlay	When enabled, the 'Network Connection Lost' overlay appears on the display(s) when a loss of network connectivity is detected. Normal hypervisor scheduling delays can falsely trigger this message.
Enable Preparing Desktop Overlay	When enabled, the 'Preparing Desktop' overlay appears on the display(s) when users log in. This overlay provides assurance that login is proceeding if the desktop takes more than a few seconds to appear.
