Understanding the vGW Series Image Enforcer Tab
The Introspection module’s Image Enforcer tab reports on results of comparisons between guest virtual machines (VMs) and model templates or active VMs that are referred to as Gold Images.
Figure 95 shows the Image Enforcer tab page displaying results of a scan in which VMs that belong to the Monitored/Secured VMs group are compared to the WinDesktop(Win7-32bit-Template) Gold Image. The groups that are included in the scan are selected in the VM tree.

The Image Enforcer tab page shows the following results of a comparison:
- It identifies matches. That is, it identifies software installed on a VM that is also installed on the Gold Image.
- It identifies applications that are installed on a VM that are not installed on the Gold Image.
- It identifies applications installed on the Gold Image that are not installed on a VM.
- It checks software versions, and it identifies versions on VMs that do not match those of the Gold Image.
