# Host Manager Dialog Box (for Default test sets only)

To access | In the Test Lab module, Test Sets tab, select Test Sets > Host Manager.
Important information | If you specify a host group for remote test execution, ALM runs the test on the first available host, and not on every host in the host group. The Host Manager dialog box is used to arrange remote hosts only for Default test sets.
