21. What does this operation do? Purpose Under what circumstances is the operation performed? User-driven? Periodic? Frequency How is performance measured? Performance

22. Step 1Step 2Step 3

24. Provides end-users access to the virtualized applications to which they are entitled Purpose At user login (default) Every X minutes/hours/days (configurable) Frequency Time to visible availability of new applications Performance

25. Query Active Directory to determine the list of groups based on the user token Query the SQL DB to collect the entire list of applications registered with the system Return filtered list based on the applications entitled to the user Client requests OSD and ICO files from content directory

27. Delivers virtual application content to App-V clients Purpose Before first application launch (FB1) During application usage (OOS) During idle CPU cycles (Auto-load) Frequency Time to launch (FB1) Responsiveness of virtual applications (OOS) Impact of loading on other network operations (Auto-load) Performance

28. Query AD to authenticate the user Query AD to verify that the user is authorized to access the resource Load the requested package content and deliver it to the client

30. Ensures user is authorized to launch an application Purpose Before each virtual application launch Frequency Time to launch application Performance

31. Acquire token representing the user’s credentials Query AD to authenticate the user Query AD to verify that the user is authorized to access the resource

33. Accepts usage data from App-V clients Purpose Dependent on publishing refresh (occurs at the same time) Frequency Degree of impact on publishing/streaming Performance

34. (Optional) Record the client as a new reporting source Update state of the client cache in the DB Update application usage information in the DB

36. View and edit application, package, entitlement, and reporting data Purpose Defined by business need Frequency Responsiveness of the Management Console Performance

37. Query Management Web Service for the data relevant to the current display/task Management Web Service consults DB for requested data and returns to the console Invoke Management Web Service to make the requested changes Management Web Service modifies DB accordingly
