The VDI Toolkit allows you to easily auto disconnect idle VMware Horizon virtual desktop sessions. Auto disconnect can be helpful for many reasons. First, you may have an issue with users in your environment walking away from an active virtual desktop session. An unattended virtual desktop session is a security concern as someone could come behind and work from that workstation under the logged-in user's context. Second, if a user locks their VMware Horizon virtual desktop session with ctrl+alt+del, it will keep the session in an active connected state. Although this is not a security concern, it will utilize one of your licenses. By disconnecting these virtual desktop sessions, you will free one of your concurrent licenses within your environment. Disconnecting idle virtual desktop sessions can aid in needing fewer licenses within your environment.
