At VMworld 2014 in San Francisco Login VSI announced a new product. This product is in beta and is going by the project name Login VUM. Login VUM stands for Login Virtual Monitoring and it is a monitoring product which will focus on the user experience in hosted desktop environments.

Please note: This is a personal blog and not an official Login VSI blog post.

How does it work?

Login VUM will simulate users within your product environment. The workload logon to the environment, start applications and report this to a centralized location. When applications are taking longer to start or the VUM user is not able to logon Login VUM will automatically raise an alert so the administrator is informed before real user will start calling.
