Question 81 - 2V0-51.23 discussion

VMware Dynamic Environment Manager Application Profiler is a standalone application that simplifies the creation of Flex configuration files and predefined settings for use with VMware Dynamic Environment Manager. Application Profiler analyzes where an application stores its file and registry configuration. The analysis results in an optimized Flex configuration file, which you can edit in the Application Profiler or use directly in the VMware Dynamic Environment Manager environment. With Application Profiler, you can also create application-specific predefined settings, with which you can set the initial configuration state of applications.Save the Flex configuration file with predefined settings to export the current application configuration state1.

Therefore, the two capabilities that are supported by VMware Dynamic Environment Manager Application Profiler are:

It allows creation of application-specific predefined settings. This means that you can configure the default settings for an application that will be applied when a user launches it for the first time.For example, you can set the language, theme, or preferences of an application using Application Profiler2.

It analyzes registry and file system location settings for an application. This means that it monitors the changes that an application makes to the registry and file system when it is running, and generates a Flex configuration file that captures those changes.This allows VMware Dynamic Environment Manager to manage the user personalization of those settings across different devices and sessions3.

The other options are not supported by VMware Dynamic Environment Manager Application Profiler:

It allows individual user personalization of applications. This is not a capability of Application Profiler, but rather of VMware Dynamic Environment Manager itself.Application Profiler only helps to create the Flex configuration files that enable user personalization, but it does not apply them to individual users4.

It allows third-party user personalization of applications. This is also not a capability of Application Profiler, but rather of VMware Dynamic Environment Manager itself. Application Profiler only works with applications that store their settings in the registry or file system, and does not support third-party user personalization solutions such as AppSense or RES.

It allows creation of computer templates. This is not a capability of Application Profiler at all. Computer templates are used to create virtual machines or physical computers with a predefined configuration, and are not related to application management or user personalization.
