<h2 id="logon_roam">Roaming profiles</h2>
|
|
<p>iSeries NetServer™ configured as a Logon Server is capable of supporting roaming profiles.
|
|
Roaming profiles store their personal PC configuration (desktop icons, start
|
|
menu, registry settings, etc.) on a file server in addition to caching them
|
|
locally. In this way, they can sign on from various computers and always
|
|
get their same desktop and profile settings. Other names this function is
|
|
known by include roving users and profile serving.</p>
|
|
<p>In many network environments roaming profiles are not necessary because
|
|
users tend to have their own workstation they always log in from, and the
|
|
extra time needed to download and save a personal profile when the function
|
|
is used only rarely may not be justified. However, there are PC environments
|
|
where users need to move from workstation to workstation, or they have multiple
|
|
PCs that should be kept synchronized (perhaps a mobile computer in addition
|
|
to a desk PC). These are ideal cases to make use of roaming profiles.</p>
|
|
<p>Another benefit of storing profiles on the server is that they can be made
|
|
mandatory. For example, a user cannot change their profile if it is mandatory.
|
|
Thus, mandatory profiles are downloaded from the server at logon, but are
|
|
not saved back during logoff.</p>
