From the Farms page, you can click a farm's name to see its detailed pages. Initially the Summary page is displayed.
Summary page
The Summary page displays the farm's current settings. For each page section, you can click the pencil icon to change those settings that the system allows to be updated for an existing farm. Some settings cannot be changed on a farm after it is created, such as its pod.
Session Hosts page
The Session Hosts page displays the existing RDSH instances in the farm. The actions you can perform on a selected instance are power on or off (depending on the VM's current state), delete, and reset the agent pairing.
Sessions page
The Sessions page displays the farm's existing user sessions. When you select a session, you can disconnect it or log the user off the session. When you click Disconnect, you force the user's session to be disconnected. No message is sent to the user that the session is disconnecting. When you click Log Off, a message is displayed to the user with a grace period in which the user can save documents before the session ends.
System Activity page
The System Activity page displays activity in the farm due to system actions, such as expanding the farm. On the System Activity page, you can cancel tasks and export reports.
n You can cancel assignment-related tasks before they complete by selecting the task in the list and clicking Cancel Tasks.
n Before attempting to select a task for cancellation, refresh the view to update the status for the tasks displayed.

n You can export the displayed information as a report file with the Export Report feature. When you export a report, it appears on the Exported Reports tab of the Reports page, where you can download the report. See Reports Page for more information.
When you begin the export, you can choose whether you want to export all data or only the data as currently filtered. Then a message appears at the top of the page indicating that the report is being generated. You can see the progress of the report and download it when complete on the Exported Reports tab of the Reports page. Depending on the number of records, the preparation time can take several minutes. For example, a report with 50,000 records takes approximately 10 minutes.
Attention If any of your pods in Microsoft Azure are at manifests earlier than 2552, the process for larger reports is as follows:
n When you begin the export a message appears stating that the report is being compiled and it can take some time. Depending on the number of records, the
preparation time can take several minutes. For example, a report with 50,000 records takes approximately 10 minutes.
n When the preparation is done, another dialog box appears with the message Report Generated Successfully and a Download button. After clicking the Download button, you must wait for the download to complete before closing this dialog box. Closing it before the download is complete cancels the download.
Because you cannot perform any other actions in the console until this process is finished, if you have a large number of activity records you should plan to export the information when you can wait up to 10 minutes before performing other tasks in the console.
