To entitle users and groups to pools, you need to perform the following steps:

During pool creation in the entitlement pane, click on add, search for users and groups in the Active Directory, continue and finish the pool creation.This option allows you to entitle users and groups to a desktop or application pool at the same time as you create the pool3.

Navigate to Inventory > Desktops > check mark a pool > click on Add Entitlement.This option allows you to add entitlements to an existing desktop or application pool after you create the pool4.

Navigate to Users and Groups > Entitlements > click on Entitlements > click on Add Entitlements, search for users and groups in the Users pane and add the desired desktop pool in the next pane Desktop Pools.This option allows you to review and manage the entitlements for users and groups from a single location5.

The other options are not required or valid for entitling users and groups to pools.Running the Active Directory entitlement script in the golden master is not necessary as Horizon 8 automatically synchronizes with Active Directory domains that are configured in Horizon Console6.Specifying the desired Active Directory OU for the VMs during pool creation does not automatically add the preconfigured associated user group to the Horizon entitlements as you still need to select the users or groups from the search results7.Reference:=3: VMware Horizon 8 Documentation:Add Entitlements During Pool Creation4: VMware Horizon 8 Documentation:Add Entitlements After Pool Creation5: VMware Horizon 8 Documentation:Review and Manage Entitlements6: VMware Horizon 8 Documentation:Active Directory Requirements for Horizon Connection Server7: VMware Horizon 8 Documentation:Create an Automated Desktop Pool

To enable an instant-clone pool to use NVIDIA GRID vGPU, the administrator needs to do the following:

Install NVIDIA GRID vGPU in the physical ESXi hosts and select Shared Direct in the Host Graphics Settings12.

Prepare a golden image with NVIDIA GRID vGPU configured, including selecting the vGPU profile to use12.

Take a snapshot of the golden image12.

In Horizon Console, when creating an instant-clone pool, select Manage Using vSphere Client in the 3D Render field.Instant-clones inherit the settings configured in the vSphere Client for the golden image12.

Therefore, the possible reasons for the issue are:

The administrator has selected Shared instead of Shared Direct when editing the Host Graphics Settings for the ESXi host in the vCenter Server.This option is for vSGA, not vGPU3.

The golden image and snapshot that the administrator selected has not been configured for NVIDIA GRID vGPU.The administrator needs to verify that the correct vGPU profile is selected and that the NVIDIA drivers are installed in the golden image4.

The other options are not valid because:

Horizon 8 does have an explicit 3D renderer option for instant clone, but it is Manage Using vSphere Client, not NVIDIA GRID vGPU12.

Instant-clone pools do support NVIDIA GRID vGPU as long as the ESXi hosts and the golden image are properly configured12.

To enable a virtual machine to power on with a PCI graphics accelerator, such as a GPU, attached to it, the administrator needs to reserve all guest memory for that virtual machine. This is because PCI devices require direct memory access (DMA) to function properly, and memory overcommitment can interfere with DMA operations.Reserving all guest memory ensures that no memory swapping or ballooning occurs on the virtual machine, and that the memory address space is contiguous and available for DMA56.

The other options are not required or valid because:

Enabling Video Card 3D Graphics is not necessary for using a PCI graphics accelerator.This option is for using software-accelerated graphics or virtual shared graphics acceleration (vSGA) on a virtual machine7.

Setting Memory Shares to High does not guarantee that all guest memory will be reserved. Memory shares only affect how memory resources are distributed among competing virtual machines when there is memory contention on the host. Memory shares do not prevent memory overcommitment or swapping.

Disabling CPU Hot Plug does not affect the use of a PCI graphics accelerator. CPU Hot Plug allows adding or removing virtual CPUs from a powered-on virtual machine. It has no relation to PCI devices or DMA operations.

To improve the user experience when using Application Profiler from Dynamic Environment Manager to create application-specific user defined settings, the administrator can configure exclusions to filter out unnecessary folders and registry entries. Exclusions are rules that specify which file system or registry locations are not included in the Flex configuration file.Exclusions can reduce the size of the Flex configuration file and the profile archive, and improve the performance of the application profiling and synchronization processes12.

The other options are not valid or effective because:

Changing the default save path does not affect the size or content of the Flex configuration file or the profile archive.It only changes where the files are stored on the local machine3.

Using Deepest Registry Path does not reduce the size of the Flex configuration file or the profile archive.It only changes how the registry locations are displayed in the Application Profiler interface4.

There is no such thing as Cloud Entitlements in Dynamic Environment Manager.The correct term is Global Entitlements, which are used in Cloud Pod Architecture to entitle users to desktops or applications across multiple pods5.

To join two standalone Horizon pods in a Cloud Pod Architecture (CPA) deployment, the administrator needs to perform the following steps:

On one pod, initialize the CPA. This step creates a pod federation and enables global data replication among all pods in the federation.The pod that initializes the CPA becomes the first pod in the federation67.

On the second pod, join the CPA. This step adds an existing standalone pod to an existing pod federation.The pod that joins the CPA inherits the global data from the federation89.

On one pod, create Global Entitlements, and add local pools from each pod. This step allows users to access desktops or applications from any pod in the federation based on their entitlements and load-balancing policies .

The other options are not correct or complete because:

Initializing the CPA on both pods is not necessary or possible. Only one pod can initialize the CPA and create a pod federation.The other pods must join an existing pod federation68.

Syncing the CPA on the second pod is not a valid step. Syncing is a process that occurs automatically among all pods in a pod federation to ensure data consistency and availability.

Creating Cloud Entitlements is not a valid term. The correct term is Global Entitlements, which are used in CPA to entitle users to desktops or applications across multiple pods.

A cloud implementation of a VDI solution over an on-premises solution is appropriate for the following scenarios:

The organization needs to quickly scale-up in disparate geographical locations. A cloud VDI solution can provide faster provisioning, deployment, and management of virtual desktops and applications across multiple regions and data centers.A cloud VDI solution can also offer better performance, availability, and user experience for remote and mobile workers who need to access their desktops and applications from anywhere and any device12.

The organization has limited CapEx budget. A cloud VDI solution can reduce the upfront capital expenditure (CapEx) required to purchase, install, and maintain the hardware and software infrastructure for a VDI solution. A cloud VDI solution can also lower the operational expenditure (OpEx) by shifting the responsibility of managing, updating, and securing the VDI infrastructure to the cloud provider.A cloud VDI solution can offer flexible and predictable pricing models based on usage, subscription, or consumption13.

The other scenarios are not appropriate for a cloud implementation of a VDI solution over an on-premises solution because:

The organization already has infrastructure to support a VDI. If the organization has already invested in the hardware and software resources to support a VDI solution, it may not be cost-effective or feasible to migrate to a cloud VDI solution.The organization may also have existing policies, processes, and workflows that are tailored to the on-premises VDI solution and may not be compatible with the cloud VDI solution4.

The organization needs to setup high availability and disaster recovery. While a cloud VDI solution can provide high availability and disaster recovery capabilities, it may not be sufficient or reliable for some organizations that have strict requirements for data protection, compliance, and business continuity.An on-premises VDI solution can offer more control, customization, and security over the backup, replication, and restoration of the VDI data and applications in the event of a disaster5.

The organization controls highly confidential data. A cloud VDI solution may pose some risks or challenges for organizations that handle sensitive or regulated data, such as financial, healthcare, or government data. A cloud VDI solution may not meet the compliance standards or regulations that apply to the organization's data. A cloud VDI solution may also expose the organization's data to potential breaches, leaks, or unauthorized access by third parties.An on-premises VDI solution can provide more visibility, governance, and encryption over the organization's data6.

To create an instant-clone desktop pool, you must first create a golden image virtual machine and take a snapshot of it in a powered-down state. This snapshot provides the base image for the clones. You cannot create an instant-clone desktop pool from a VM template or a powered-on VM. Therefore, the administrator must take a snapshot of the VM that is the golden image before creating the new desktop pool.Reference:Create an Instant-Clone Desktop PoolandInstant Clone Desktop Pools
