Appsense Personalisation at Logon

The Following details the interaction between the client and PS Server at logon.
This can help in troubleshooting.


  • When the user logs on the EM agent Assist is started by the EM Agent
  • The EM Agent Assist loads the Configuration.aemp file
  • The PMM checks the config for ProfileMangagementPrimaryServer entry (it goes through failover list if neccessary)
  • The PMM calls session.aspx passing it session informatin (,Site UserID, OS , netbios etc..)
  • The PS use the details above to determine which site the user belongs to and responds with a list of XML failover sites.
  • The PMM replaces the PS failover list it had earlier. It will from now on use this list.
  • The PMM now calls config.aspx on the PS passing up the details as for session.aspx
  • The PS determines which personilsation group the user belongs to based on the info passed up and responds with a XML config for that user.
  • The PMM saves that users XML config as c:\appsensevirtual\\Profileconfig.xml
  • The Profileconfig.xml contains the details of which applications are to be personalised for that user. 
 theres a few more steps that i will document later.
