# Managing Sessions

When you connect to Parallels RAS and launch a published resource, a session is created on the server side. You can manage sessions from the **Sessions** menu as follows:

* **Disconnect session**. Disconnect from the remote server. The session will continue to run on the server, along with all open remote applications. To reconnect to the section, open any published resource.
* **Disconnect all RAS sessions.** Disconnect all active sessions (not just the current one). The sessions will continue to run on the remote server.
* **Send Ctrl+Alt+Delete**. Send <kbd>Ctrl</kbd>+<kbd>Alt</kbd>+<kbd>Delete</kbd> to the remote session.
* **Session Information**. Display the session information. For this menu to be enabled, you need to select a running published resource.
* **Configure Folders** Edit the local folders that can be seen within the remote session (this option will only appear if Drive Redirection is enabled).
* **Smart Sizing**. Specifies how resolution behaves when the application screen size is changed:
  * **Scale (fit to window)**. Application screen size can be changed, but the resolution does not change.
  * **Resize (update resolution)**. Resulting changes together with the application screen size.
  * **Disabled**. Application screen size cannot be changed.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.parallels.com/landing/ras-mac-client-guide/using-parallels-client-for-mac/using-a-ras-connection/managing-sessions.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
