An administrator configured a virtual machine to use an NVIDIA card but the virtual machine is not starting up.
What could be the cause of the issue? (Choose two.)
- A. 3D graphics cannot be used with local storage.
- B. Not all memory has been reserved on the VM.
- C. No suitable host could be found.
- D. The Desktop Pool doesn't support 3D cards.
- E. Not all CPU has been reserved on the VM.
Answer: B,C
Explanation:
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.
NEW QUESTION # 22
In a load balanced Horizon POD with three Connection Servers, there are 450 active Blast sessions connected.
What happens if one of these Connection Servers runs into an unplanned outage?
- A. All 450 active sessions are disconnected, and have to re-connect again by the end-user.
- B. All 450 active session are logged off immediately.
- C. Only the active sessions from the failed Connection Server are disconnected, because HTTPS Secure Tunnel is disabled.
- D. All active sessions will stay connected, because HTTPS Secure Tunnel and Blast Secure Gateway are disabled.
Answer: C
Explanation:
Explanation
In a load balanced Horizon POD with three Connection Servers, there are 450 active Blast sessions connected.
If one of these Connection Servers runs into an unplanned outage, only the active sessions from the failed Connection Server are disconnected, because HTTPS Secure Tunnel is disabled. This means that the other two Connection Servers can still handle the remaining sessions without interruption.
The HTTPS Secure Tunnel is a feature that allows Horizon Client devices to establish secure connections to virtual desktops and applications through the Connection Server. When this feature is enabled, all the display protocol traffic is tunneled through the Connection Server, which acts as a proxy between the client and the desktop. This increases the security and simplifies the network configuration, but also adds some overhead and dependency on the Connection Server availability1.
When this feature is disabled, the Horizon Client devices connect directly to the desktops using their IP addresses or hostnames, bypassing the Connection Server. This reduces the load and dependency on the Connection Server, but also requires more network configuration and firewall rules to allow direct access to the desktops2.
The Blast Secure Gateway is a similar feature that allows Horizon Client devices to establish secure connections to virtual desktops and applications using the Blast Extreme protocol through the Connection Server. When this feature is enabled, the Blast Extreme traffic is tunneled through the Connection Server, which acts as a gateway between the client and the desktop. When this feature is disabled, the Horizon Client devices connect directly to the desktops using Blast Extreme3.
In this scenario, both HTTPS Secure Tunnel and Blast Secure Gateway are disabled, which means that the Horizon Client devices connect directly to the desktops using Blast Extreme. Therefore, if one of the Connection Servers fails, only the sessions that were authenticated by that Connection Server are affected. The other sessions can continue without interruption, as long as they can reach their desktops directly4.
The other options are not correct for this scenario:
All 450 active sessions are disconnected, and have to re-connect again by the end-user. This would be true if HTTPS Secure Tunnel or Blast Secure Gateway were enabled, and all the display protocol traffic was tunneled through the Connection Server. In that case, any failure of a Connection Server would disconnect all the sessions that were using it as a proxy5.
All active sessions will stay connected, because HTTPS Secure Tunnel and Blast Secure Gateway are disabled. This would be true if there was no dependency on the Connection Server after authentication.
However, even with HTTPS Secure Tunnel and Blast Secure Gateway disabled, there is still some communication between the Horizon Client and the Connection Server for session management and heartbeat monitoring. If a Connection Server fails, these communications are lost and the sessions are terminated.
All 450 active session are logged off immediately. This would be true if there was a global setting in Horizon Console to log off users when a Connection Server fails. However, there is no such setting in Horizon Console. The default behavior is to disconnect users when a Connection Server fails, not log them off.

NEW QUESTION # 23
While creating a new Instant Clone Desktop Pool, an administrator does not see a particular Windows 10 VM available or listed as an option for use as the golden image. Which step must the administrator perform, prior to creating this new desktop pool?
- A. Validate the Golden Image with VMware Skyline Health.
- B. Take a Snapshot of the VM that is the golden image.
- C. Install VMware Dynamic Environment Manager Agent.
- D. Configure Advanced parameters of VMware Tools for Horizon of this VM.
Answer: B
Explanation:
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.

NEW QUESTION # 24
Which two scenarios are appropriate for a cloud implementation of a VDI solution over an on-premises solution? (Choose two.)
- A. The organization has limited CapEx budget.
- B. The organization controls highly confidential data.
- C. The organization already has infrastructure to support a VDI.
- D. The organization needs to setup high availability and disaster recovery.
- E. The organization needs to quickly scale-up in disparate geographical locations.
Answer: A,E
Explanation:
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.

NEW QUESTION # 25
End-users are complaining that they are frequently being asked for credentials when opening additional apps.
Which step should the administrator take to resolve the issue?
- A. Configure Desktop Timeout by modifying the Pool Settings in Horizon Administrator.
- B. Configure Session Timeout by modifying the Client Settings in Horizon Client.
- C. Configure SSO Timeout by modifying the Global Settings in Horizon Administrator.
- D. Configure a time limit by modifying the Horizon GPO.
Answer: C
Explanation:
Single sign-on (SSO) is a feature that allows users to log in to Horizon Client once and launch remote desktops and applications without being prompted for credentials again. SSO is enabled by default and can be configured in the Global Settings of Horizon Administrator. One of the settings is SSO Timeout, which determines how long the user's credentials are cached before they expire. If the SSO Timeout is too short, users might be frequently asked for credentials when opening additional apps. To resolve this issue, the administrator can increase the SSO Timeout value or set it to -1, which means that no SSO timeout limit is set.

NEW QUESTION # 27
Which pre-requisite should be met before installing the Horizon Connection Server?
- A. The host system must be a vSphere VM with a static IP address.
- B. An SSL server certificate must be installed on the Horizon Connection Server.
- C. Install AD DS and AD LDS Tools on the Horizon Connection Server.
- D. Use a domain user account with administrator privileges on the Horizon Connection Server.
Answer: D
Explanation:
Explanation
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 ADAMdatabase that stores the Horizon configuration data.

NEW QUESTION # 29
Which vCenter privileges are required only for instant clones VMs with a Trusted Platform Module (vTPM) device?
- A. Upgrade virtual machine compatibility
- B. Manage custom attributes
- C. Configure Host USB device
- D. Manage KM5
Answer: D
Explanation:
Explanation
A Trusted Platform Module (vTPM) is a virtualized version of a physical TPM device that provides enhanced security for virtual machines. A vTPM device can be added to a virtual machine to enable features such as encryption, attestation, and key management. A vTPM device requires a Key Management Server (KMS) to store and manage the encryption keys.
To create instant clones VMs with a vTPM device, the vCenter Server user must have certain privileges in addition to those required for instant clones without a vTPM device. One of these privileges is Manage KMS, which allows the user to perform cryptographic operations on the vTPM device, such as cloning, decrypting, encrypting, migrating, and registering. The Manage KMS privilege is part of the Cryptographic operations privilege group on vCenter Server.
The other options are not required only for instant clones VMs with a vTPM device:
Upgrade virtual machine compatibility: This privilege allows the user to upgrade the virtual hardware version of a virtual machine to support new features and capabilities. This privilege is required for instant clones VMs regardless of whether they have a vTPM device or not.
Configure Host USB device: This privilege allows the user to configure USB devices on an ESXi host and attach them to a virtual machine. This privilege is not related to vTPM devices or instant clones VMs.
Manage custom attributes: This privilege allows the user to create, edit, and delete custom attributes for vCenter Server objects. Custom attributes are user-defined fields that can store additional information about objects. This privilege is not related to vTPM devices or instant clones VMs.

NEW QUESTION # 30
An administrator needs to enable Session Collaboration in the VMware Horizon environment. What will be used as a requirement to enable Session Collaboration?
- A. floating Instant Clone pool
- B. BLAST protocol
- C. dedicated Instant Clone pool
- D. PCoIP protocol
Answer: B
Explanation:
Explanation
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 arequirement. References: Configuring Session Collaboration, Sharing Remote Desktop Sessions, and [VMware Horizon 8.x Professional Course]
NEW QUESTION # 31
The administrator of Windows 10 desktops in a VMware Horizon environment needs to build a new Windows
10 desktop pool. This new pool will be dedicated to training and onboarding new employees. The administrator has created a shortcut on a test machine, which has successfully opened the web browser to the on-boarding applications. After deploying the new desktop pool across the company, the administrator notices that the shortcut placed on desktops is not available to any other user connecting to the desktop pool.
Which two options are available for the administrator to make this shortcut available to all desktop pool users, while minimizing ongoing administrative effort, before updating the desktop pool golden image? (Choose two.)
- A. Copy the shortcut to the Windows Default Domain Controller Policy.
- B. Configure a Shortcut with Horizon View Client.
- C. Copy the shortcut during user provisioning to a non-writeable App Volume.
- D. Copy the shortcut to c:\users\Public\Desktop.
- E. Configure a Shortcut with DEM (Dynamic Environment Manager).
Answer: D,E
Explanation:
Explanation
The two options that are available for the administrator to make the shortcut available to all desktop pool users, while minimizing ongoing administrative effort, before updating the desktop pool golden image are:
Copy the shortcut to c:\users\Public\Desktop. This option will place the shortcut in the public desktop folder, which is shared by all users who log on to the same computer. The public desktop folder is normally a hidden folder, so the administrator needs to enable the option to show hidden files and folders in File Explorer1. This option does not require any additional software or configuration, but it will only work for the existing desktops in the pool. If new desktops are added or refreshed, the shortcut will not be copied automatically.
Configure a Shortcut with DEM (Dynamic Environment Manager). This option will use the DEM console to create a shortcut configuration that will apply the shortcut to the user's desktop during logon2. The administrator needs to install and configure DEM on the Horizon environment, and create a configuration share and a profile archive share for storing the DEM settings3. This option requires more initial setup, but it will work for any desktop in the pool, regardless of whether it is new or refreshed. It also allows more flexibility and control over the shortcut properties and conditions.
The other options are not valid or feasible because:
Copying the shortcut during user provisioning to a non-writeable App Volume will not work because App Volumes are used to deliver applications, not shortcuts. App Volumes are virtual disks that are attached to the virtual machines at runtime, and they contain application files, registry entries, and settings4. Copying a shortcut to an App Volume will not make it appear on the user's desktop.
Copying the shortcut to the Windows Default Domain Controller Policy will not work because this policy is used to configure settings for domain controllers, not desktops. The Default Domain Controller Policy is a Group Policy Object (GPO) that is linked to the Domain Controllers organizational unit (OU) in Active Directory, and it contains security settings that are applied to all domain controllers in the domain5. Copying a shortcut to this policy will not affect any desktops in the Horizon environment.
Configuring a Shortcut with Horizon View Client will not work because Horizon View Client is used to connect to remote desktops and applications, not to create shortcuts. Horizon View Client is a software application that runs on various devices and platforms, and it allows users to access their virtual desktops and applications through a secure connection6. Configuring a shortcut with Horizon View Client will not make it appear on the user's desktop.

NEW QUESTION # 32
A user is complaining that each time they logon they need to change the settings for the e-mail client.
Which three options can an administrator deploy to make sure the user's settings are being saved? (Choose three.)
- A. Persona Management
- B. VMware Dynamic Environment Manager
- C. Roaming Profiles
- D. VMware App Volumes Writeable Volumes
- E. Flexible profiles
Answer: A,B,D
Explanation:
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.

NEW QUESTION # 33
What is the default URL used to access the Horizon Console?
- A. https://<connection_server_IP>/login
- B. https://<connection_server_FQDN>/default
- C. https://<connection_server_IP>/administrator
- D. https://<connection_server_FQDN>/admin
Answer: D
Explanation:
Explanation
The default URL used to access the Horizon Console is https://<connection_server_FQDN>/admin, where
<connection_server_FQDN> is the fully qualified domain name of the Connection Server instance. This URL allows you to log in to Horizon Console by using a secure (TLS) connection. You can also use the IP address of the Connection Server instance instead of the FQDN, but this might result in blocked access or reduced security due to certificate mismatch. You cannot use https://localhost to connect fromthe Connection Server host, but you can use https://127.0.0.1 instead. The other options are not valid URLs for Horizon Console.

NEW QUESTION # 34
A VMware Horizon administrator is tasked with deployment of a desktop pool, which should fulfill these requirements:
. End-users should always get the same desktop VM.
. Backups with the existing VMware image-based backup tool should be supported.
. Desktop VMs will be cloned on a weekly basis per vSphere API.
Which desktop solution can accomplish this requirement?
- A. Automated Desktop Pool, based on dedicated Instant Clones.
- B. Automated Desktop Pool, based on floating Instant Clones.
- C. Automated Desktop Pool, based on Dedicated Full Clone Virtual Machines.
- D. Automated Desktop Pool, based on Floating Full Clone Virtual Machines.
Answer: C
Explanation:
An Automated Desktop Pool using Dedicated Full Clone Virtual Machines best meets the requirements because it ensures end-users always receive the same desktop VM, supports backups with VMware's image-based backup tools, and allows for cloning via the vSphere API on a weekly basis. Full clones are standalone VMs that don't depend on a parent VM after being created, making them suitable for image-based backups and consistent user experience.
NEW QUESTION # 35
A Horizon administrator does not see the health status for the Unified Access Gateways (UAG) they configured in the Horizon Console.
What two options could be causing the issue? (Choose two.)
- A. The pod needs to be added to the Cloud Pod Federation.
- B. Another license is needed for UAG health overview.
- C. The name entered in the Horizon console doesn't match up with the system name in UAG.
- D. The Connection Server needs to be rebooted.
- E. The firewall hasn't been configured properly to allow traffic on port 443.
Answer: C,E
Explanation:
If the Horizon Console does not display the health status of configured Unified Access Gateways (UAGs), it could be due to improper firewall configuration blocking traffic on port 443, which is essential for secure communication. Additionally, a discrepancy between the system name in UAG and the name entered in the Horizon Console can also prevent the console from correctly retrieving and displaying the UAG's health status.
