Measures reported by AWSLogonSimTest

This test emulates a user logging into an AWS WorkSpace and launching an desktop. In the process, the test reports the total duration of the simulation, time taken for the login to be authenticated, duration of desktop launch, and log out duration. Additionally, the test also captures failures (if any) at each step of the simulation. Using the insights provided by this test, the administrators can proactively detect logon slowness/failures and precisely pinpoint the root-cause of the anomaly - is it login authentication? desktop launch? or logout? This way, administrators are enabled to isolate the probable pain-points of their virtual infrastructure, even before users begin to actively use the cloud desktops.

The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
Logon_availability Indicates whether/not the simulator logged into the directory of the virtual private cloud successfully, when attempting to launch this desktop. Percent The value 100 for this measure indicates that logon was successful, and the value 0 indicates that logon failed.

If this measure reports the value 0, then no other measures will be reported for that desktop.

You can also use the detailed diagnosis of this measure to view the output of the simulation script, scrutinize it, and isolate the failure and problem points of the AWS WorkSpace infrastructure at first glance.
App_launch_availability Indicates whether/not the simulator launched this desktop successfully. Percent The value 100 for this measure indicates that desktop launch was successful, and the value 0 indicates that the launch failed.

By comparing the value of this measure across applications/desktops, you can quickly identify which desktop could not be launched.
Logon_duration Indicates the time taken by the simulator to login to the directory of the virtual private cloud, when attempting to launch this desktop. Seconds If the Total_duration for an desktop exceeds its threshold, compare the value of this measure with that of the other duration values reported by the test to know where the bottleneck lies - in login authentication? application launch? or log out?
App_launch_duration Indicates the time taken by the simulator to launch this desktop. Seconds If the Total_duration for an desktop exceeds its threshold, compare the value of this measure with that of the other duration values reported by the test to know where the bottleneck lies - in login authentication? application launch? or log out?
Logoff_duration Indicates the time taken by the simulator to log out of the virtual provate cloud. Seconds If the Total_duration for an desktop exceeds its threshold, compare the value of this measure with that of the other duration values reported by the test to know where the bottleneck lies - in login authentication? application launch? or log out?
Total_duration Indicates the total time taken by the simulator to simulate the launch of this application / desktop. Seconds An abnormally high value for this measure could indicate a logon slowness. In such a case, compare the value of all the duration values reported by the test to know where the bottleneck lies - in login authentication? application launch? or log out?
