Action based on registry change - Menno - 10-22-2015

Hi,

I want to know if its possible for a Scense action to be based on a registry change.

Case (simplified):

I use Scense client on vmware view VDI desktops

multiple locations all have different/unique subnets

so user logs logs on location 1 -> gets printer from location 1
user logs in on location 2 -> gets printer from location 2

this action is based on the locations build in Scense where the actual location comes from registry setting being inserted by the vmware view agent.
the "ViewClient_IP_Address" is the ip address of the actual zero client used by the user.

If a user switches from location 1 to location 2 and does NOT log out and in, but takes over the session, the "ViewClient_IP_Address" in the registry changes immediately.
At that point i want an action that changes the printer from "printer1" to "printer2"

Any ideas how to do this?

Thnx!

Hi Menno,

You should take a look at the 'Active Location monitoring' article on ScenseGuru.com:

Although this article describes experimental functionality, it just might help you out.
