Send messages
Before you restart a cloud computer, you can send messages to the cloud computer to remind the connected end users of the upcoming restart. This allows end users to save files to prevent data loss.
Before you send messages, take note of the following requirements:
The cloud computer must be a Windows cloud computer that uses the Adaptive Streaming Protocol (ASP). The image of the cloud computer must be a system image of V 1.0.0 or later or a custom image created based on a system image of V 1.0.0 or later.
The clients used by end users must be the Windows client or macOS client of Alibaba Cloud Workspace V 5.0.0 or later.
In the left-side navigation pane, choose
.In the upper-left corner of the top navigation bar, select a region.

In the Send Message dialog box, configure the Subject and Messages parameters and click Confirm.
After you send a message, the Message sent message appears in the EDS Enterprise console. The cloud computer receives and displays the message that you sent.
View runtime duration rankings
You can view the runtime duration rankings of cloud computers and manage cloud computer resources based on the rankings. You can also view the operation logs of end users.
Statistics that contribute to rankings are collected starting from March 26, 2024.
In the left-side navigation pane, choose
.In the upper-left corner of the top navigation bar, select a region.
On the Cloud Computer Monitoring page, click the Top Runtime Duration tab. On the tab that appears, select a time interval or specify a custom time interval and view the runtime duration rankings of cloud computers during the time interval. You can also perform the following operations based on your business requirements:
Manage cloud computer resources. For example, if you want to change the billing method of a specific cloud computer, click Resources in the Actions column to navigate to the Cloud Computers page. On the page that appears, you can change the billing method.
