Terminal server operation

It is possible to run the ELO Java Client on a terminal server environment by adjusting a few settings.

individualJVM

In current versions of the ELO Java Client, this setting is entered to the registry automatically in terminal server environments. Be aware that you can only start one instance of the ELO Java Client on a terminal server. Open the Windows Registry and search for the following key value:

A35B432E-5274-4146-9858-638313EDCEA6

Wherever this key occurs in the registry, open the LocalServer32 key and edit the (default) value. Add -individualJVM to the end, including a space before it.

Keep searching in this way and add the text every time the GUID above occurs in the registry.

PDF printer

The standard ELO PDF Printer does not work in terminal server environments. Install the ELO Ghostscript Printer instead if you wish to print PDFs to or from ELO.

Memory

Each instance of the Java Client is assigned 1 GB of RAM by default. This may require excessive amounts of system RAM in terminal server environments. It is possible to reduce this value to 500 MB in most environments without drawbacks.

To do so, open the Windows Registry and search for ELOJavaClientw.exe. The registry key where this is stored also contains the parameter -Xmx1000m. Change this value to -Xmx500m.

Please note: Do not change the memory settings for the ELO Java Client without first testing performance with different document types in the actual repository. Reducing this value to less than 500 MB is not recommended.
