To enable debug logging for a single user in VMware Dynamic Environment Manager, the administrator needs to create an empty FlexDebug.txt file in the same folder as the standard log file for this user. This will trigger FlexEngine to switch to debug logging for this particular user1. Debug logging is useful for troubleshooting purposes, as it provides more detailed information about the FlexEngine operations and actions1.

The other options are not correct because:

• Updating the FlexEngine registry to DEBUG will not enable debug logging for a single user, but for all users who log on to the same computer. This option can only be set through Group Policy settings and applies to all users1. Moreover, this option is not recommended, as it can cause performance issues and disk space consumption due to the large size of the log files1.
• Creating an empty FlexDebug.log file in the log folder will not enable debug logging for a single user, as the file name must be exactly FlexDebug.txt. The file extension must be .txt, not .log1.
• Configuring the FlexEngine GPO to DEBUG will not enable debug logging for a single user, but for all users who are affected by the GPO. This option can only be set through Group Policy settings and applies to all users1. Moreover, this option is not recommended, as it can cause performance issues and disk space consumption due to the large size of the log files1.

VMware Horizon Agent for Linux is a software component that enables Linux machines to be used as remote desktops or published applications in a Horizon environment. Horizon Agent for Linux supports several features that enhance the user experience and manageability of Linux desktops and applications, such as USB redirection, display protocol PCoIP, multiple-session mode, single sign-on, smart card authentication, and 3D graphics34. However, Horizon Agent for Linux does not support location based printing or session collaboration features that are available for Windows machines5. Also, Horizon Agent for Linux does not require installation registration as it automatically registers with the Connection Server when the viewagent service is started6. References := 3: VMware Horizon 8 Documentation: Horizon Agent for Linux 4: VMware Horizon 8 Documentation: Features Supported by Horizon Agent for Linux 5: VMware Horizon 8 Documentation: Features Not Supported by Horizon Agent for Linux 6: VMware Horizon 8 Documentation: Install Horizon Agent on a Linux Machine

The minimal level of Horizon Console access that the IT support center would need to help with Horizon desktop user issues is the Help Desk Administrators role. This role allows the IT support center to view and troubleshoot user sessions, reset user passwords, send messages to users, and perform other help desk tasks. The Help Desk Administrators role can be assigned to users or groups on any access group that contains the desktop pools or farms that the IT support center needs to support.

The other options are not the minimal level of Horizon Console access for this scenario:

• Local Administrators: This role allows full administration rights on a specific access group and its sub-access groups. This role can perform all the tasks of the Help Desk Administrators role, as well as create, edit, and delete desktop pools, farms, applications, entitlements, and other objects. This role is more than what the IT support center needs to help with user issues.
• Global Help Desk Administrators: This role allows full administration rights on all access groups in the Horizon environment. This role can perform all the tasks of the Local Administrators role, as well as create, edit, and delete access groups and global entitlements. This role is more than what the IT support center needs to help with user issues.
• Inventory Administrators: This role allows limited administration rights on a specific access group and its sub-access groups. This role can view and manage desktop pools, farms, applications, entitlements, and other objects, but cannot create or delete them. This role can also perform some help desk tasks, such as viewing user sessions and sending messages to users, but cannot reset user passwords or troubleshoot sessions. This role is not sufficient for what the IT support center needs to help with user issues.
• Administrators: This role allows full administration rights on all access groups in the Horizon environment, as well as global settings, licensing, roles and permissions, events configuration, and other system-wide settings. This role can perform all the tasks of the other roles, as well as configure and manage the Horizon infrastructure. This role is more than what the IT support center needs to help with user issues.

Collaboration is a feature that allows users to invite other users to join an existing Windows or Linux remote desktop session with both screen sharing and audio out features enabled. A remote desktop session that is shared in this way is called a collaborative session. The user that shares a session with another user is called the session owner, and the user that joins a shared session is called a session collaborator. A Horizon administrator must enable the Session Collaboration feature for the desktop pool or farm that contains the remote desktops that support collaboration.

One of the requirements to enable Session Collaboration is to use the VMware Blast display protocol for the remote desktops. VMware Blast is a protocol that provides high-performance, high-quality graphics and multimedia delivery over LAN or WAN networks. VMware Blast supports Session Collaboration by allowing multiple users to view and interact with the same remote desktop session simultaneously. Other display protocols, such as PCoIP or RDP, do not support Session Collaboration and will not allow users to share or join collaborative sessions.

Therefore, to enable Session Collaboration in the VMware Horizon environment, the administrator needs to use the BLAST protocol as a requirement. References: Configuring Session Collaboration, Sharing Remote Desktop Sessions, and [VMware Horizon 8.x Professional Course]
