Single User Environment
A single User Environment is called when each Client is used by one Windows user only. Typically this is the case for Desktop PCs or Laptops where each employee has a dedicated physical workstation.
In other words, one "Client" (as given in the Hyland RPA Manager -> System Tables -> Client) is one machine only.
In this particular case please consider this configuration:
- Hyland RPA Manager: IdentificationExpression of each Client is %COMPUTERNAME%
-
Hyland RPA
Designer: Each realization of a robot has to consider the same
IdentificationExpression for the activities "Get Password and Username" and
"Get Password" as given here:
- Local installation of Hyland RPA may be a folder such as C:\AnotherMonday. This folder is used by AM Infrastructure for the "standard installation". It is highly recommended to use common installation paths overall all Clients. Clients used for unattended mode (where AM Conductor starts tasks automatically) have to have identical installation path.
Multiple User Environment
A Multiple User Environment is called when each Client is used by more than one Windows user. Typically this is the case for Virtual Machines, Application and Terminal Servers. There, one (virtual/physical) machine is shared by many users.
In other words, two or more "Clients" (as given in the Hyland RPA Manager -> System Tables -> Client) may be one machine:
For instance, a Terminal Server is the machine with 2 Windows Users. In Hyland RPA Manager there will be 2 Client entries configured, each entry representing a Windows user.
In this particular case please consider this configuration:
- Hyland RPA Manager: System Tables via Client: IdentificationExpression of each Client is %COMPUTERNAME%-%USERNAME%. If the computer name machine is not static, please use %USERNAME% instead!
- Hyland RPA Designer: Each
realization of a robot has to consider the same IdentificationExpression for
the activities "Get Password and Username" and "Get Password" as given here:
- Local installation of Hyland RPA may be a user dependent folder such as %USERPROFILE%\Desktop\AnotherMonday (C:\Users\USERNAME\Desktop\AnotherMonday), %APPDATA%\AnotherMonday, among others. This folder is used by AM Infrastructure for the "alternative installation". It is highly recommended to use common installation paths overall all Clients. Clients used for unattended mode (where AM Conductor starts tasks automatically) have to have identical installation path.
Notes
- In case of any doubts: Please assume your environment to be a Multiple User Environment and make according configurations accordingly. You may start with one Windows User for each Client by using a Multiple User Environment.
- The IdentificationExpression may be chosen wisely. Depending on the target infrastructure environment, other values may be more appropriate. See About the Client Table in the Hyland RPA Manager documentation for more information.
- By default, the standard values in Hyland RPA are set for a Single User Environment.
