Hello, 
is there any way to hide or gray out machines where max user session has 
reached? 
We have a couple hundred servers what are accessible via Guacamole. Most of the 
server are only allowed to 
connect from max one user. If any other user then would like to connect to an 
available machine, the user has to test 
each single machine if he can connect, or get an error displayed. If most of 
the servers are in use, it can really be a pain to find 
an available machine for a user to connect. 
I am wondering if there is any way to just hide busy machines, or grey them 
out, so that it is easy to see what machine is used or not? 



You could place each of those machines within the same balancing group, and 
have your users connect to that balancing group instead of the connections. The 
balancing group will then automatically choose an available machine.

Hi Michael, 
thank you for your hint in this case. A balancing group would be an option to 
get this solved, but is there any function to grey out clients where MAX 
connection has been reached? 
Let's say there are machines where maximum 1 user is allowed to connect to. 
Once the once user is connected, we would like to get this indicated for every 
other user. 
Also, ideally the total machines and usable machines should be shown somewhere 
behind a group name. 

Example: 

Sample Group (32/22) 
>> 32 indicates the total machines in this group and 22 shows the connectable 
>> machines. 

Thanks
