The government organization wants to deploy a new Horizon system using RDSH desktop automated farms while minimizing the number of Windows servers required. Additionally, they want to ensure that user profiles, personalization, and application customization are preserved.
Option A: Use RDSH instant clone farms and App Volumes including Writable Volumes. Instant clone farms create clones of virtual machines from a master image, which can quickly create new desktops as needed. App Volumes is a tool that allows for the delivery of applications to virtual desktops. Writable Volumes is an App Volumes feature that preserves user data and settings by storing them separately from the virtual desktop. This option addresses the requirements of quickly creating new desktops while preserving user profiles, personalization, and application customization.
Option B: Use RDSH linked clone farms and App Volumes including Writable Volumes. Linked clone farms create clones of virtual machines by linking to a parent VM, which can reduce the amount of storage required. This option includes the same features as Option A, except it uses linked clones instead of instant clones. Linked clones can be less resource-intensive but may take longer to create than instant clones.
Option C: Use RDSH instant clone farms and User Environment Manager. User Environment Manager is a tool that preserves user profiles and settings, allowing them to be applied to any virtual desktop that the user logs into. This option includes instant clone farms and User Environment Manager, which can quickly create new desktops and preserve user profiles and settings. However, this option does not include App Volumes, which could limit the delivery of applications to virtual desktops.
Option D: Use RDSH linked clone farms and User Environment Manager. This option includes linked clone farms and User Environment Manager, which can reduce storage requirements and preserve user profiles and settings. However, it does not include App Volumes, which could limit the delivery of applications to virtual desktops.
Overall, Option A seems to be the best option to meet the requirements of quickly creating new desktops while preserving user profiles, personalization, and application customization.
