Launching all sessions

If you want to start all BlueZone sessions at the same time, you must turn off the launch pad feature. The launch pad feature is designed primarily for those customers who have multiple complex sessions and/or multiple host environments and they want to provide their users with an organized presentation of those sessions and hosts. If you feel that you do not need the benefit of the launch pad, you can turn off the launch pad so that it does not display on the launch page.

Note: This feature is available only when you are using the Web-to-Host mode to start your sessions.
Note: If you are not using the Web-to-Host Wizard, and you are manually editing the object tag.

To enable the start all sessions feature, locate the following PARAM NAME and VALUE pair in the object tag and change the VALUE to "No" as shown here:

<PARAM NAME="LaunchPad" VALUE="No">

Setting the LaunchPad VALUE="No" has the same affect as turning on the start all sessions feature. This is because when there is no launch pad in the web page, all of the sessions that are configured in the object tag automatically start when the web page opens.

  1. Open the Web-to-Host Wizard.
  2. Select a site and click Next.
  3. Select a launch folder and click Next.
  4. Select any session and click Next.
  5. In the Advanced Settings window, click Web-to-Host.
  6. Select the Launch All Sessions at Once radio button.
  7. Click OK to return to the Advanced Settings window.
    From now on, when this launch folder is accessed, the launch pad is no longer displayed and all configured sessions are started simultaneously.
Tip: Because you are no longer using the launch pad, you may also want to close the launch page automatically after the BlueZone sessions are started. This is accomplished by selecting the Automatically close browser window after session launch? check box.
