Which Features of IGEL OS Will Be Affected If the UMS Is Down?
Overview
In general, IGEL OS works independently of the Unified Management Suite (UMS). This includes, for instance, all remote desktop clients like Citrix, RDP, or VMware Horizon, and browsers.
Any configuration changes that are made via the UMS are stored on the device and thus remain stable when the UMS is down.
However, the Shared Workplace (SWP) feature and administration functions are affected by a UMS outage.
The following sections list the details.
