Implementing VMware Horizon 7.7 - Third Edition

By: Jason Ventresco

Overview of this book

This third edition of Implementing VMware Horizon 7.7 has been updated to get you up to speed with VMware Horizon 7.7 by showing you how to use its key features and deploying an end-user computing infrastructure for your own organization. The book begins by guiding you on how to deploy all the core requirements for a VMware Horizon infrastructure. It then moves on to show you how to provision and administer end-user computing resources using VMware Horizon. You’ll not only be able to deploy the core VMware Horizon features, but you’ll also be able to implement new features, such as the Just-in-Time Management Platform (JMP) and the Horizon Console. You’ll also focus on the latest features and components of the Horizon platform and learn when and how they are used. By the end of the book, you will have developed a solid understanding of how your organization can benefit from the capabilities VMware Horizon offers and how each of its components is implemented.

Horizon Security Server backup

A Horizon Security Server contains no information about the configuration of the Horizon installation, and therefore has no backup requirements. Assuming that the self-signed SSL certificate was replaced with one from a trusted internal or commercial certificate authority, it is important to maintain a backup of that certificate that includes the private key.

As the Horizon Security Server is a publicly accessible server, you may wish to backup the log files on a regular basis. These files are located in the same folder on every type of Horizon Connection Server: %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Application Data\VMware\VDM\logs.
