One of the prerequisites for installing the Horizon Connection Server is to use a domain user account

with administrator privileges on the system. This is because the installer needs to access and modify

certain system files and registry settings, as well as create and configure the VMware Horizon View

services. The installer also authorizes an Administrators account that has full administration rights for

the Horizon environment, including the right to install replicated Connection Server instances. The

other options are not prerequisites for installing the Horizon Connection Server. The host system can

be a physical or virtual machine, but it must have an IP address that does not change. An SSL server

certificate is not required for the initial installation, but it is recommended to replace the default self-

signed certificate with a valid certificate from a trusted CA after the installation. AD DS and AD LDS

Tools are not required for installing the Horizon Connection Server, but they can be useful for

troubleshooting and managing the ADAM database that stores the Horizon configuration

data. Reference: Installation Prerequisites for Horizon Connection Server and [VMware Horizon 8.x

To access the settings and status of a pool in VMware Horizon, an administrator would navigate to

the Inventory > Desktops section of the Horizon Console. By selecting a specific pool, the

administrator can view detailed information in the Summary section, including Pool Settings and the

status of the image used during the pool's deployment, providing insights into the pool's

configuration and operational status.

The disconnections of external sessions while internal sessions remain stable suggest an issue with

the network infrastructure external to the Horizon environment, specifically with the load balancer

placed in front of the Unified Access Gateway (UAG) appliances. Misconfigurations such as improper

session persistence settings can lead to sessions being disconnected or improperly routed, causing

the observed random disconnections.

The action that must first be performed to ensure that there are no issues with Horizon LDAP

replication within the Pod is to execute repadmin.exe/showrepl localhost:389. This command will

display the replication status of the local Connection Server instance and show any errors or warnings

that might affect the replication process1. The administrator should run this command on each

Connection Server instance in the Pod before upgrading them in parallel, and resolve any issues that

are reported.

The other options are not valid or feasible because:

Executing ViewDBChk.cmd --scanMachines will not check the Horizon LDAP replication status, but

rather scan the vCenter Server inventory for virtual machines that are managed by Horizon and

report any inconsistencies or errors2. This command is useful for troubleshooting virtual machine

issues, but not for verifying LDAP replication.

Executing vdmexport.exe -f Myexport.lDF will not check the Horizon LDAP replication status, but

rather export the Horizon LDAP configuration data to a file named Myexport.lDF3. This command is

useful for backing up or restoring the Horizon LDAP data, but not for verifying LDAP replication.

Executing vdmadmin.exe -S will not check the Horizon LDAP replication status, but rather display the

health status of the Connection Server instances in the Pod4. This command is useful for monitoring

the Connection Server performance and availability, but not for verifying LDAP replication.

Global Entitlements in VMware Horizon allow for the aggregation of resources across multiple pods

and sites into a single entitlement. This feature is particularly beneficial when publishing applications

that are hosted across different pods, as it ensures that users see only one icon for the application,

regardless of which pod it is hosted on, simplifying the user experience and administration of

applications in a multi-pod Horizon environment.

In VMware Horizon, to designate a Home Site for a user, you would use the "Cloud Pod Architecture"

feature, which allows you to set home sites and manage global entitlements across multiple pods

and sites in a Horizon environment.

In the exhibit's menu on the left, you should click on "Cloud Pod Architecture" to proceed with

designating a Home Site for a user.

The issue described indicates that the Horizon Connection Server is incorrectly handling traffic that

should be directed to the Unified Access Gateway (UAG) and then to the VDI desktops. Disabling the

Tunnel and Gateways settings on the Horizon Connection Server forces the UAG to handle the Blast

traffic directly, ensuring that the connections are made to the VDI desktops' IP addresses, thus

resolving the black screen and disconnection issue.

A golden image must have a current snapshot to be used for cloning, and having multiple active

snapshots can cause confusion and issues in the provisioning process. Additionally, selecting the

correct Guest OS version is crucial for compatibility and optimal performance. These factors must be

correctly configured for a VM to appear in the list of available golden images for provisioning.
