The Workspace Environment Management (WEM) feature "Log Off Web Portal When Session is Launched" is designed to enhance security by automatically closing the StoreFront web session after a user successfully launches a virtual app or desktop. For this feature to function correctly without prematurely ending the user's new session, a specific dependency on StoreFront's Workspace Control must be met. The Workspace Control setting must be configured to not terminate active VDA sessions when the user logs off from the StoreFront portal. This prevents the WEM action of logging off the portal from inadvertently terminating the very session the user just started.

A. Set Workspace control to NOT automatically reconnect to the sessions when users log onto StoreFront.

This setting controls session reconnection behavior upon login and is unrelated to the logoff action after a session launch.

B. Set Workspace control settings to log off from session when users log off from StoreFront.

This is the opposite of the required configuration and would cause the newly launched session to be terminated immediately.

C. Set Workspace control to automatically reconnect to the sessions when users log onto StoreFront.

This is a user experience setting for session reconnection and does not impact the prerequisites for the WEM logoff feature.

1. Citrix Workspace Environment Management Documentation: In the "Transformer settings" article, under the "Advanced" tab description, the documentation for the "Log Off Web Portal When Session is Launched" feature explicitly states the prerequisite.

Source: Citrix Product Documentation, Workspace Environment Management, Current Release, Configuration, Transformer settings.

Reference: "To use this feature, you must also set the Workspace Control settings on the StoreFront store to Do not log off a session when users log off from StoreFront."

2. Citrix StoreFront Documentation: The Workspace Control settings are configured within the StoreFront console for a specific store. The relevant setting is the "Logoff action."

Source: Citrix Product Documentation, StoreFront, Current Release, Manage the delivery of resources in a store, Configure workspace control.

Reference: The "Logoff action" setting within Workspace Control determines whether user sessions are terminated, disconnected, or left running when they log off from a store. To meet the WEM prerequisite, this must not be set to "Terminate."
