VMware View clients consume two sessions while connected when APM is configured with Smart Card optional Access Policy. In this case, the very first opened session remains unauthenticated and is automatically groomed afterwards.
Extra short-lived unauthenticated APM sessions are created during the normal policy execution.
This happens with APM as PCoIP proxy configured to support smart card using basic authentication method and password authentication as a fallback option.
