Smart Card Protocol Engine properties

Attributes on the Smart Card Protocol Engine Properties panel of Array Manager let you tune Secure Global Desktop smart card processes for a particular array member. The attributes apply independently to each Secure Global Desktop server.

From the command line, use tarantella config to view and edit these settings.

Changes to these attributes take effect for new Protocol Engines only. Existing Protocol Engines are not affected.
