Application Virtualization Detection and Utilization

Universal Discovery detects, recognizes, and reports utilization data for virtual applications that run under supported application virtualization technologies.

The Software Utilization plug-in that is installed together with Universal Discovery Agent collects running software process data. Then, the data is merged together with the scan file and sent to XML Enricher where package rules are leveraged to recognize virtual applications. Virtual applications and their utilization data are modeled to the Installed Software CI in UCMDB.
