Each action is detailed below.
Log off
In case you need to immediately close a user session, you may want to force a log-off. To do so, you just need to follow these steps:
Please, access to the "Sessions" option in the left menu area named "VDI OS Manager".
Search for your app/desktop session at the "Search" field at the top right side of the screen. Then, please select it at the "Sessions" list, before finally clicking in the "Log off" button:
You will be prompted for confirmation. Please, click on the "OK" button, to complete this action:
Once your session is closed, you may start a new one by logging in your app/desktop again. Please, check the last session isn't displayed in the sessions list.
Notify User
You may send a notification to the desired users by selecting a session.
The message you type in the "Message" text area will be sent by clicking the "OK" button.
Session detail
You can see the session general and extended information in the session detail view.
Performance
This area helps in the diagnosis of issues by providing feedback about three essential data:
- "CPU": Very useful to identify defects in the sizing of the server.
- "Memory": As the above one.
- "RTT": The ICA Round-Trip Time quantifies the user experience and is based on the amount of time it takes for user input to reach the server and for that response to appear on the client device.
Depending on the VM type, Flexxible|SUITE will display different performance graphics:
- Desktops, desktop templates and application server templates
- SDIs
- Applications: RTT
