Introduction:
RES Folder Synchronization is an enhancement of Microsoft’s File and Folder Synchronization Framework. RES adds context awareness and filters around the default Microsoft solution in order to enable better control over what is synchronized and under what conditions.
Microsoft Encrypting File System (EFS):
RES Folder Synchronization works seamlessly with Microsoft EFS if EFS is enabled on both the client and the backend. EFS, by default, is enabled on Windows XP and higher, including Windows 7 and Windows 2008 R2. Microsoft EFS is a file level encryption and therefore can dynamically encrypt and decrypt files and folders on demand when they are accessed. To enable EFS, select either ... READ MORE>>

In one of my previous blog articles I promised to give you a closer look at the Dispatcher Discovery process. It took me a while but now I will fulfill that promise. Together with my colleague Bas van Goor I created an overview of the discovery process and in this article I will walk you through it.
Why do we actually need a discovery process? The RES Automation Manager Agent doesn’t communicate directly with the database. It does so by means of one or more Dispatchers and for an uninterrupted communication process it needs to have a list of functional and reachable Dispatchers in its memory. Building an initial list of Dispatchers in memory is what we ... READ MORE>>

Since I like this way of providing information more and more, encouraged by very positive feedback from our partners and customers, here a short addition to my last performance tuning blog.
Recently we run into an alarm state 1 at the beautiful orange colored RES Suppport floor: two reports of a slow responding RES Workspace Manager environment, could not be a coincident, although....
Performance blog 1 didn't help, part 2 is born by that. Luckily the issue has been sorted out quickly, check out the first one below.

In 2011 RES Software released RES VDX and RES Subscriber for VDX. These are the next generation applications of Workspace Extender and RES Subscriber. By using this software, it's possible to use locally installed applications in a remote desktop.
At the Support department we receive questions regarding several different aspects of this product. In this article I will mention some best practices and FAQ's of RES VDX. The configuration can be different when using RES VDX in a standalone configuration from a configuration when it's integrated into RES Workspace Manager. Both configurations will be mentioned in each section.
How the RES VDX Engine is started

Since RES PowerFuse 2010 SR1 a new option has been introduced within the RES PowerFuse / Workspace Manager Console: Disable Active Setup.
Still a lot of questions arise around this subject. Let me try to explain a bit more and give a nice example from a current customer case.
The purpose of this blog?
Disable Active Setup is more and more used as a logon-speed-up feature. Fact is that Active Setup takes some valuable time from the user at logon. These days more Local Profiles are being used, customers hate to see the Active setup at each logon. It is so easy to enable this feature, but think about the possible consequences.
