Microsoft User Experience Virtualization (UE-V) 2.x

  • Makale

Güncelleştirme: Aralık 2014

Uygulama Alanı: User Experience Virtualization 2.0, User Experience Virtualization 2.1

Capture and centralize your users’ application settings and Windows OS settings by implementing Microsoft User Experience Virtualization (UE-V) 2.0 or 2.1. Then, apply these settings to the devices users access in your enterprise, like desktop computers, laptops, or virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) sessions.

With UE-V you can…

  • Specify which application and desktop settings synchronize

  • Deliver the settings anytime and anywhere users work throughout the enterprise

  • Create custom templates for your third-party or line-of-business applications

  • Recover settings after hardware replacement or upgrade, or after reimaging a virtual machine to its initial state

Components of UE-V 2.x

This diagram shows how deployed UE-V components work together to synchronize settings.

Component Function

UE-V Agent

Installed on every computer that needs to synchronize settings, the UE-V Agent monitors registered applications and the operating system for any settings changes, then synchronizes those settings between computers.

Settings packages

Application settings and Windows settings are stored in settings packages created by the UE-V Agent. Settings packages are built, locally stored, and copied to the settings storage location.

  • The setting values for desktop applications are stored when the user closes the application.

  • Values for Windows settings are stored when the user logs off, when the computer is locked, or when the user disconnects remotely from a computer.

The sync provider determines when the application or operating system settings are read from the Settings Packages and synchronized.

Settings storage location

This is a standard network share that your users can access. The UE-V Agent verifies the location and creates a hidden system folder in which to store and retrieve user settings.

Settings location templates

UE-V uses XML files as settings location templates to monitor and synchronize desktop application settings and Windows desktop settings between user computers. By default, some settings location templates are included in UE-V . You can also create, edit, or validate custom settings location templates by Managing Settings Synchronization for Custom Applications.

Not

Settings location templates are not required for Windows 8 apps.

Windows 8 app list

Settings for Windows 8 apps are captured and applied dynamically. The app developer specifies the settings that are synchronized for each app. UE-V determines which Windows 8 apps are enabled for settings synchronization using a managed list of apps. By default, this list includes most Windows 8 and Windows 8.1 apps.

You can add or remove applications in the Windows 8 app list by following the procedures shown here.

Managing Settings Synchronization for Custom Applications

Use these UE-V components to create and manage custom templates for your third-party or line-of-business applications.

UE-V Generator

Use the UE-V Generator to create custom settings location templates that you can then distribute to user computers. The UE-V Generator also lets you edit an existing template or validate a template that was created by using another XML editor.

Settings template catalog

The settings template catalog is a folder path on UE-V computers or a Server Message Block (SMB) network share that stores the custom settings location templates. The UE-V Agent checks this location once a day, retrieves new or updated templates, and updates its synchronization behavior.

If you use only the UE-V default settings location templates, then a settings template catalog is unnecessary. For more information about settings deployment catalogs, see Configure a UE-V settings template catalog.
