Invoking the Broker Client API is a two-step procedure, where as a first step, the Broker Client Example is built. The second step consists of running either a prebuilt PCoIP binary, or a prebuilt AWS binary.

It is possible to redirect USB flash drives with the Anyware Client SDK for Linux. The following steps outline how to enable support for remoting USB devices:
Install usb_helper to /usr/libexec/pcoip-client.
Grant the nescessary capability to the usb_helper by running:
The Linux has elements which are part of the operating system user interface and cannot be modified programmatically, as described in the following sections.
The Client SDK for Linux does not support Wayland on Ubuntu 22.04 machines. If Wayland is enabled on your machine, the Anyware Client is unable to retrieve the monitor display EDID, resulting in display issues while connecting to a PCoIP session.
Follow the steps given below to disable Wayland, and use Xorg instead.
Establishing a PCoIP session involves a number of key components, including system actors, PCoIP session phases, and connection brokers as discussed next.
There are at least three components that work together to create a PCoIP session:
The following table contains a brief description of the header files included in the Anyware Client SDK for Linux:
Note: Location of the Header Files
The header files are available at the following locations in the Anyware Client SDK for Linux package:
Anyware Clients supports redirecting USB devices to a remote session. Administrators can set rules governing allowed and disallowed devices, device classes, or device protocols.
Important: USB support is enabled by default
PCoIP-compatible brokers are resource managers that authenticate users and dynamically assign authorized host agents to Anyware clients based on the identity of the user. Anyware clients can connect to Anyware agents using a PCoIP-compatible broker, called a brokered connection, or directly, called a non-brokered or direct connection. The broker c
The following PCoIP session features can be customized:
HP may request a support file from your system to help troubleshoot and diagnose issues.
Customizable Script
This script can be customized, in the case where the log files are located in a different location the script should be updated appropriately.
