Login VSI version 4.1.40.1 Pro is used in this test to run workload tests that closely simulate a real VDI environment.
Login VSI manages the process of automatically logging users in and running common daily worker tasks. Tasks include Microsoft Office document creation and editing, email, web browsing, viewing videos, creating .zip files, and so on. Login VSI also logs all users off at the end of steady state. Login VSI captures performance metrics during the login phase that are used to generate performance results, including graphs.
The workload is generated using a set of Windows Server Launcher VMs. These launchers create VMware Horizon client connections to the Windows 10 VDI VMs being tested. This test configuration launched 500 active VDI sessions on 25 launchers (20 virtual desktops for each launcher). The workload used is the Login VSI Knowledge Worker simulation.
