Login and logoff nodes are used to automate any node which runs on the bots without hindering the machine. The user can execute the task in a remote machine. These nodes allows the user to login to the machine automatically, start the bot from the cluster provided in the node details and log off from the machine respectively.

Uses:

• Login & Log-off node is used to login to the Remote desktop machine without any manual intervention to execute the task and logoff from Remote desktop machine after the task execution.
• This allows the user to bring up the machine only during execution and bring it down after the execution is completed without any manual intervention.
• This will act as a virtual user logging in to the respective machine.

Pre-condition:

Before using the login & logoff nodes in the jiffy task, make sure that valid user credentials are provided during the machine configuration while creating clusters.
