App Volumes is a real-time application delivery system that allows administrators to assign applications to users and groups in Horizon. App Volumes uses virtual disks called packages to store and deliver applications. When a user logs on to a desktop, the App Volumes agent attaches the assigned packages to the desktop and merges them with the OS disk. The user can then access the applications as if they were natively installed.

In this scenario, Adobe Acrobat 11 has been assigned to a user as an App Volumes package. When the user logs on to VM25, which already has Adobe Acrobat 11 natively installed, the App Volumes agent attaches the package to VM25 and creates a shortcut on the user desktop. However, the package does not overwrite or conflict with the natively installed application. Instead, when the user clicks on the shortcut, the App Volumes package for Adobe Acrobat 11 is opened and runs in an isolated environment. This allows the user to use different versions of the same application without affecting each other or the OS. References: App Volumes Architecture and [VMware Horizon 8.x Professional Course]

The reason for the issue is that the administrator may not have added an instant clone domain administrator to VMware Horizon. This is a requirement for creating an automated farm of instant-clone virtual machines using the Add Farm wizard.

An instant clone domain administrator is a user account in Microsoft Active Directory that allows Connection Server to perform certain operations related to instant clones in Active Directory, such as joining instant-clone virtual machines to the domain, creating computer accounts, and deleting computer accounts. The administrator must create and configure this account in Active Directory and then specify the user name and password in VMware Horizon.

To add an instant clone domain administrator to VMware Horizon, the administrator needs to follow these steps:

• In the Horizon Console, select Settings > Domains > Domain Accounts.
• Click Add.
• Enter the domain, user name, and password for the instant clone domain administrator.

After adding the instant clone domain administrator to VMware Horizon, the administrator can proceed with creating an automated farm of instant-clone virtual machines using the Add Farm wizard.

The other options are not the reason for the issue:

• In the Add Farm wizard, the administrator may not have selected Automated Farm as farm type: This option is not relevant to the issue, as the farm type selection is done in a later page of the Add Farm wizard, after selecting the domain and the AD container. The page displayed in the exhibit is the Identification and Settings page, which is the first page of the Add Farm wizard.
• The administrator did not prepare a RDSH golden image snapshot: This option is not relevant to the issue, as the RDSH golden image snapshot selection is done in a later page of the Add Farm wizard, after selecting the domain and the AD container. The page displayed in the exhibit is the Identification and Settings page, which does not require a RDSH golden image snapshot.
• The administrator did not add the RDSH golden image to the correct domain: This option is not relevant to the issue, as the RDSH golden image domain selection is done in a later page of the Add Farm wizard, after selecting the domain and the AD container. The page displayed in the exhibit is the Identification and Settings page, which does not require a RDSH golden image domain.

The user’s problem is that their settings for the e-mail client are not being saved across sessions. This means that their user profile, which contains their personal data, settings, and preferences, is not being preserved or synchronized properly. To solve this problem, the administrator can deploy one or more of the following options to manage user profiles in Horizon:

• VMware App Volumes Writable Volumes: This option allows users to store user-installed applications, data, and settings on a disk independent of the VM. Writable volumes can be attached to desktops along with application packages, and they can isolate the user-installed applications from the system-installed applications. Writable volumes can also be configured to capture specific files and registry keys by using the snapvol.cfg policy file. This option can help users retain their e-mail client settings on a writable volume that is attached to their desktop at each login.
• Persona Management: This option allows administrators to manage user profiles by using a remote repository that stores user profiles. Persona Management synchronizes the user profile between the remote repository and the local desktop at login, logout, and at regular intervals during the session. Persona Management also supports profile redirection, which allows administrators to redirect certain folders in the user profile to a network share or a writable volume. This option can help users access their e-mail client settings from the remote repository or the redirected folder at each login.
• VMware Dynamic Environment Manager: This option allows administrators to manage user profiles and policies by using a central share that stores user configuration files. Dynamic Environment Manager captures and applies user settings and preferences based on conditions and triggers, such as location, device, or application launch. Dynamic Environment Manager also supports profile archives, which allow administrators to back up and restore user profiles on demand or on schedule. This option can help users apply their e-mail client settings from the central share or the profile archive at each login.

The other options are not valid options for managing user profiles in Horizon:

• Roaming Profiles: This option is a native Windows feature that allows users to access their user profile from any computer in a domain by storing it on a network share. However, this option is not recommended for Horizon because it can cause long login times, profile corruption, and data loss due to its synchronous and overwrite behavior. Roaming profiles are also incompatible with instant clones and linked clones.
• Flexible profiles: This option does not exist in Horizon or Windows. It might be confused with Flex Profiles, which is a third-party product from Liquidware that provides profile management solutions similar to Dynamic Environment Manager.

When configuring a virtual machine to use an NVIDIA graphics card, issues such as the VM not starting can occur if there is no suitable host available that meets the requirements for 3D graphics, or if not all memory required by the 3D graphics card has been reserved for the VM. Ensuring that the host has the necessary 3D graphics capabilities and that the VM is configured with reserved memory can resolve these issues.
