3.3 Step 3. Download and install the Launcher to the administrator’s workstation

As the administrator, you can download and install the Reflection for the Web Launcher when you add a session.

Once the Launcher is installed, you can launch the session, configure it, and assign it to users. When a user clicks the session link that you distributed, they can download and install the Reflection for the Web Launcher and open the session.

In MSS, add a Reflection for the Web session and follow the prompts to download the Reflection for the Web Launcher Installer.

  1. On the Manage Sessions panel, click + ADD.

  2. Select your ProductReflection for the Web.

  3. Select the Session type. For this evaluation, use IBM 3270.

  4. Enter a unique Session name that does not exceed 64 characters, such as eval3270.

  5. Click DOWNLOAD to download the Reflection for the Web Launcher, packaged as RWebLauncher.msi. When prompted, click Save File.

  6. From your Downloads location, click and open RWebLauncher.msi.

    Proceed through the RWebLauncher Setup wizard and click Finish.

At this point, the Reflection for the Web Launcher is installed, and you are able to add and launch sessions.

Unfortunately, the session you began adding above was not saved and you need to return to Manage Sessions to repeat the steps to add the session.
