AppToggle is a functionality/capability within AppVolumes 3.0 and enables per user entitlement and installation of applications within a single AppStack for maximum flexibility. This helps IT reduce the number of AppStacks that need to be managed, lowers storage capacity and management costs even further, improves performance, and allows applications to share or have different dependencies in a single AppStack. The AppToggle architectural approach of only installing entitled applications also offers greater security as opposed to simply hiding installed applications, which can easily be exploited.

AppToggle Appstacks are not the same as traditional AppStacks and the only supported AppStack type for App Volumes 3.0, the format of the virtual container is different and so is the approach for creation and delivery.Think AppStacks within an AppStack also called "App Bundles”, a Bundle can include a single app, multiple apps, services, drivers, files or folders.


These Appstacks are created with the AppCapture utility on a reference machine, please go to page 35 of the App Volumes 3.0 Admin Guide

AppToggle Appstacks are managed from within the App Volumes 3.0 Management Console

Hope this helps

Kind Regards,

Raymond
