The Virtual Service Image Recorder creates a service image and a VSM. The Service Image Editor and the VSM Editor let you view and edit them.

During virtualization, the VSM and service image load and run on a VSE that runs as a service. The Test Registry service tracks one or more VSEs that are running, and DevTest Workstation uses it to connect to the VSE. The VSE Dashboard is the web UI used to monitor and control the VSMs and service images that are loaded onto the VSEs.
