发明名称 Associating multiple display units in a grouped server environment
摘要 A method for grouping Human Interface Devices (HIDs) into a multi-head display is provided. The HIDs are identified as either "primary" or "secondaries". A computational-service policy module is consulted when a new HID connects to the network. If the HID is identified as a secondary, the module consults all servers within a group to see if the primary presently has an active session connected to any of the servers. If the primary is being controlled by the same server to which the secondary is connected, the session connection information for the primary is augmented to indicate that the secondary is attached to the same session, and this information is disseminated to the interested software entities. The associated session may then provide multi-head outout to the secondary. If the primary is being controlled by another server in the group, the secondary re-attaches to the server that is hosting the primary.
