# Omnissa Horizon Integration: Actions

Our Omnissa Horizon (formerly VMware Horizon) integration allows you to perform management actions on a variety of Horizon objects. You can find all management actions that you can execute on Horizon entities. This includes an explanation of the execution policy, as well as how to execute a management action via the Real-Time DX Console.

## Horizon Actions Overview

The following table provides an overview of all available management actions. The **Action Name** is the name as it appears in the Real-Time DX Console. Under **Entity Type** you can find the corresponding tab under which the execution context resides. For example, you can execute actions linked to the Entity Type **Session** on sessions shown in the **Sessions** tab of the Console. ![Horizon Management actions highlighted in the right-click action menu on a session.](https://cdn.document360.io/098100b7-b9da-4bea-b4b9-017140ab863e/Images/Documentation/image%28555%29.png)

| Exit Maintenance Mode | Mark the machine out of maintenance. This operation takes the current machine out of maintenance mode. This operation applies only to managed machines which do not belong to Instant Clone Engine desktops | Machine |
| Log off session | Log off a certain Horizon session | Session |
| Log off session forcibly | Log off a session forcibly. This operation will also log off a locked session | Session |
| Recover Machine | Mark the machine for recovery (This operation applies only to machines belonging to Instant Clone Engine desktops) The machine being recovered must not have any active user session, otherwise this operation would fail | Machine |
| Restart Machine | Restart the machine. This applies only to managed Machine | Machine |

## Permissions for Executing Management Actions

Your ControlUp organization may not allow every user to execute every management action. In the Real-Time DX Console, you can define permissions under Security Policy Pane. See [here](/v1/docs/security-policy-pane) to learn more about setting rights and permissions.

## How to Execute an Action

You can execute any management action list below by following this procedure:

1. [Connect your Omnissa Horizon environment with ControlUp](/tim-reorg/docs/add-an-euc-environment)
2. When connected, make sure your ControlUp user has the necessary permissions to perform the management action
3. Right-click the entity on which you want to execute the action. Select **Horizon Management** and choose the the management action. In this example, 2 actions are available on the machine level, **Recover Machine** and **Restart Horizon Machine**. ![Horizon Managment actions highlighted in the right-click action menu for a machine.](https://cdn.document360.io/098100b7-b9da-4bea-b4b9-017140ab863e/Images/Documentation/image%28553%29.png)
