Profiling
The profiling feature generates transcripts or profiles which are then used to create a streaming
model for the virtual application. Clicking on profile launches the application and creates a single
transcript file based on observed user behavior during that run. It is recommended that multiple
transcripts are created before creating a streaming model. Using multiple transcripts allows the
streaming system to take into consideration different use cases for the application. It is also
recommended that at least one transcript must be created for each operating system that the
application runs on.
NOTE: Only uncompressed virtual applications can be profiled and streamed. Compression is
automatically disabled during the model build process.
Learning the product for building application streams.
1 Click Advanced, select Profiling, and choose the virtual application to be profiled. This
application is the one created in
2 When you open the virtual application, its profiling begins.
3 Let the application run for a few of minutes to complete profiling and close the application.
This step completes the profiling activity.If profiling is not complete, wait for a minute and
select Stop to stop the profiling.
Building a Model
Once the necessary transcripts have been created, the streaming model is ready to be built. The
model build process uses the transcripts and Connection Speed parameter to compute a model for
execution. After the model build process is complete, the streaming files are written to the selected
output folder. The Connection Speed setting is used to optimize delivery of application content to
the end-user.
To make the product ready for streaming.
1 Select the desired Connection Speed. The 1.5Mbps connection speed setting is recommended
in most scenarios.
2 Click BuildModel and create a model file for the virtual application.
3 Create a new temporary location.
4 For streaming the application from the Web server, move the entire directory from the Client or
temporary location to the Web server under the layers folder. This directory contains one
model.xm file and a number of *.xs files.
6.2.2 Setting Up Files on a Web Server
ZENworks Application Virtualization Streaming Server can be set up using any standard web server.
For the purposes of this guide, Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager has been used to install a
web server.
Once a directory for the root folder of the server site has been configured, files can be added to the
root folder. Setup files for ZENworks Application Virtualization Streaming Server are included in
the
