Let's get started.  Launch a Chrome or Firefox browser and sign into Workspace ONE using your TestDrive username and password.

You will first be brought to the Favorites section.  Click on TD-RDS-Desktops

Under TD-RDS-Desktops select "Browser"

Once the Desktop is launched, select the App Volumes Manager shortcut on the desktop

Use your TestDrive username and password to log into App Volumes Manager (read only console configured here for shared demo purposes)

Expand Microsoft Office 2019 from the Applications Tab.  In the Microsoft Office 2019 App settings, note that it was set to allow multiple package attachment on multi-session RDS.  Also note that the Application is set to "Current" as this is required for Published Apps on Demand to work properly. 

Click on the Packages Tab to view the package settings.

Expand Microsoft Office 2019 Package, and note the delivery type is set to "On-Demand" 

Select "Edit"

Note the listed Stages, and that this package is set to "Published"

Click back on Application tab, expanding the Notepad++ Application with similiar settings.

Click on the "Packages" tab, expanding Notepad++ and view the settings 

Select the Edit button

Note the similiar settings we viewed earlier here as well.

Minimize the browser, and from the desktop, launch the Horizon Console

Enter your TestDrive username and password here

Under Settings, select the Servers menu, and note the App Volumes Managers tab, where we have registered our App Volumes Manager.

Under Inventory, select the Applications menu and in the search box type PAoD and note the Source column is from App Volumes. View the App Volumes Published Apps on Demand configured settings here.

This ends Section 1.  Please log out of the TD-RDS-Desktops VM

Section 2

Open a new Chrome or Firefox browser and launch Workspace ONE Access, and search for PAoD.  Note the entitled Apps we viewed in Horizon are showing in the list.  

Launch on PAoD-Excel.  (For our demo we used Excel, however any Office App will work.  All Office Apps exist within one Package)

Once Excel is launched, select the File tab

Select "Browse" from the Open Menu

Verify that Notepad++ is not in the list.  

**(Because the TestDrive environment is shared,  Notepad++ may already have been launched by another demo user on the PAoD RDSH server, and if it is, it will show up in your case.  If this happens, just note that is the case, or go back to the WorkspaceONE PAoD search list and find another non Office PAoD app and verify that this app is not in the list, launch it, and then return to Excel go back to the file open menu to verify is exists after the launch)**

Expand the side menu

Launch PAoD-Notepad++

Notepad++ Launches.  Expand the side menu again.

Note both Apps running.  Click return to Microsoft Excel

Click refresh, then notice Notepad ++ has been attached On Demand

This completes the Published Apps On Demand demo.
