  1. By default, TRS instances with statuses are displayed: “Active”, “Paused”, “Shutoff” and “Error”. The instance must be assigned to a given user or user group to which he is included. If there are several instances, then a list of all available TRS instances for connection is displayed.

  2. Description of the behavior of the TRS instance after connection:

    Status upon connection Status after connection
    «Active» State of the instance does not change.
    «Paused» Unpausing instance, transition to state «Active».
    «Shutoff» Starting instance, transition to state «Active».
    «Error» Starting new instance with status «Active» and automatic assignment to the user.

  3. If there are no TRS instances available in the domain to which the user is connecting, a new instance will be launched and automatically assigned to the user.

  4. If in the domain to which the user is connected, there are no available TRS instances that are assigned to this user, but there is instance that is not assigned to anyone, then this instance is automatically assigned to this user. The backup instance will be started instead.
