General Management Tasks

To view published resources, select the Publishing category in the Parallels RAS Console. In the middle pane, expand the Published Resources node (if it's collapsed) to see the resources.

Right-click a resource to open a context menu. The menu has the following options:

• Add. Starts the publishing wizard, which you can use to publish a resource.
• Find. Allows you to search the list for a resource by name.
• Duplicate. Duplicates a selected resource. You can publish multiple resources of the same type, but configure them differently according to your needs.
• Disable or Enable. Disables or enables a selected resource. A disabled resource is unavailable to end users.
• Delete. Deletes a published resource from the Parallels RAS farm. This only removes the published resource item from the farm. The actual application is not affected. To avoid accidental deletions, a dialog box is displayed asking for your confirmation.
• Verify Target(s). Verifies that the target specified for the selected resource is valid. To see the target, select a resource and then click the Application tab page.
• Convert Filters to Secure Identifiers. If filtering for a resource is specified using WinNT or LDAP, you can use this option to convert it to SID (Secure Identifier). For more information, see Using Filtering Rules.

The action items at the bottom of the screen allow you to perform the following actions:

• Add. Same action as the Add menu item described above.
• Delete. Same as the Delete menu item described above.
• Move Up. Moves a selected published resource item up the list.
• Move Down. Moves a selected published resource item down the list.
• Disable. Same as the Disable menu item described above.
• Sort. Sorts resources alphabetically. For this action item  to become enabled, you must select the Published Resources node (the topmost one) or a published folder containing individual items.
• Find. Same as the Find menu item described above.

After making any changes to published resources, please don't forget to click the Apply button to commit them to the Parallels RAS farm.
