Question 1

Which pre-requisite should be met before installing the Horizon Connection Server?

Accepted Answer

B

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 ADAM database that stores the Horizon configuration data.

Question 2

Which two options describe how an administrator can access the settings and status of a pool? (Choose two.)

Accepted Answer

Explanation: To access the settings and status of a pool in VMware Horizon, an administrator would navigate to the Inventory > Desktops section of the Horizon Console. By selecting a specific pool, the administrator can view detailed information in the Summary section, including Pool Settings and the status of the image used during the pool's deployment, providing insights into the pool's configuration and operational status.

Question 3

A new Horizon environment has gone into production. External sessions are being disconnected after
a random period of time.
The following information has been documented by the administrator:
. Internal and external users are able to connect to their desktops.
. External sessions connect via Unified Access Gateway.
. Users are immediately able to reconnect but are disconnected again in a few minutes.
. Due to limited amount of public IP addresses, all traffic flows through a load balancer.
. Internal sessions, connected directly to the desktops, are not impacted.
. While the session remains connected, all expected functionality works properly.
What could be a cause of this issue?

Accepted Answer

A

Explanation: The disconnections of external sessions while internal sessions remain stable suggest an issue with the network infrastructure external to the Horizon environment, specifically with the load balancer placed in front of the Unified Access Gateway (UAG) appliances. Misconfigurations such as improper session persistence settings can lead to sessions being disconnected or improperly routed, causing the observed random disconnections.

Question 5

An administrator is preparing to upgrade Horizon Connection Servers in parallel. What action must first be performed to ensure that there are no issues with Horizon LDAP replication within the Pod?

Accepted Answer

A

Explanation: The action that must first be performed to ensure that there are no issues with Horizon LDAP replication within the Pod is to execute repadmin.exe/showrepl localhost:389. This command will display the replication status of the local Connection Server instance and show any errors or warnings that might affect the replication process1. The administrator should run this command on each Connection Server instance in the Pod before upgrading them in parallel, and resolve any issues that are reported. The other options are not valid or feasible because: Executing ViewDBChk.cmd --scanMachines will not check the Horizon LDAP replication status, but rather scan the vCenter Server inventory for virtual machines that are managed by Horizon and report any inconsistencies or errors2. This command is useful for troubleshooting virtual machine issues, but not for verifying LDAP replication. Executing vdmexport.exe -f Myexport.lDF will not check the Horizon LDAP replication status, but rather export the Horizon LDAP configuration data to a file named Myexport.lDF3. This command is useful for backing up or restoring the Horizon LDAP data, but not for verifying LDAP replication. Executing vdmadmin.exe -S will not check the Horizon LDAP replication status, but rather display the health status of the Connection Server instances in the Pod4. This command is useful for monitoring the Connection Server performance and availability, but not for verifying LDAP replication.

Question 6

A Horizon Administrator is publishing an application which will be used by users across multiple Horizon pods and sites. Which feature of Global Entitlements are beneficial to this scenario?

Accepted Answer

A

Explanation: Global Entitlements in VMware Horizon allow for the aggregation of resources across multiple pods and sites into a single entitlement. This feature is particularly beneficial when publishing applications that are hosted across different pods, as it ensures that users see only one icon for the application, regardless of which pod it is hosted on, simplifying the user experience and administration of applications in a multi-pod Horizon environment.

In the exhibit's menu on the left, you should click on "Cloud Pod Architecture" to proceed with designating a Home Site for a user. Thank you for your visit.

Question 8

An administrator recently deployed a Horizon pod with external access using Unified Access Gateway
(UAG). While trying to launch VDI from an External network, VDI launches with a black screen and
then disconnects. The administrator has validated the port requirement and all other required ports
are open. Users are able to connect internally using the connection server URL. While reviewing the
UAG logs, the administrator found that the Blast connection is hitting the Connection Server instead
of VDI IP.
What should the administrator do to resolve the issue?

Accepted Answer

D

Explanation: The issue described indicates that the Horizon Connection Server is incorrectly handling traffic that should be directed to the Unified Access Gateway (UAG) and then to the VDI desktops. Disabling the Tunnel and Gateways settings on the Horizon Connection Server forces the UAG to handle the Blast traffic directly, ensuring that the connections are made to the VDI desktops' IP addresses, thus resolving the black screen and disconnection issue.

Question 9

An administrator wants to provision a new golden image but doesn't see the VM in the list with golden images. Which three could be the cause of the issue? (Choose three.)

Accepted Answer

Explanation: A golden image must have a current snapshot to be used for cloning, and having multiple active snapshots can cause confusion and issues in the provisioning process. Additionally, selecting the correct Guest OS version is crucial for compatibility and optimal performance. These factors must be correctly configured for a VM to appear in the list of available golden images for provisioning.

Question 12

After creating a global entitlement, an administrator clicks on the name and navigates to Local Pools.
The administrator clicks on Add but no local pools show up in the selection windows.
What can be one explanation for this?

Accepted Answer

C

Explanation: For a global entitlement to include local desktop pools, the settings and configurations of the global entitlement must be compatible with those of the local pools. If there is a mismatch in settings, such as display protocol, user assignment type (dedicated or floating), or other critical configurations, the local pools will not appear as selectable options when adding them to a global entitlement.

When integrating a Linux OS based desktop into Active Directory, which three of the following can be used? (Choose three.)

Accepted Answer

Explanation: Integrating a Linux OS-based desktop into Active Directory can be achieved using Winbind for domain joining and authentication, Windows Domain Join through tools like Samba, and System Security Services Daemon (SSSD) for LDAP authentication against Active Directory. These methods enable Linux desktops to participate in a Windows-centric environment, allowing for centralized authentication and management.

Question 15

An organization wants to prohibit certain users from saving any type of data from their virtual
desktops to client devices after business hours. After business hours are 5PM till 9AM.
How can this be achieved?

Accepted Answer

D

Explanation: VMware Horizon's Dynamic Environment Manager (DEM) allows for the creation of Horizon Smart Policies with conditions that can be applied based on various criteria, including time of day. By utilizing DEM, an administrator can create policies that restrict certain actions, such as saving data to client devices, outside of specified business hours (5PM to 9AM in this case), thus achieving the desired control over user activities based on the time of day.
