What is VDI-Mode?

VDI-Mode: is a FAT-Client feature where the LoadGen Agent doesn’t have to be online when the LoadTest is started, i.e. because the server has to provision and start-up the machine (VDI). 

LoadGen will start the test on this machine as soon as the Agent is responding.

What is Lazy-SUT (Systems under Test)?

Lazy-SUT (Systems Under Test) is to be used in combination with VDI-Mode. The LoadGen Agent doesn’t have to be online when the LoadTest is started, as soon as the Agent is responding the System Under Test Monitoring will start collecting the defined counters.
