![]() ![]() I’m super excited for this since I have grown to hate dealing with Composer. With Composer going away, Instant Clones had to be enabled for everyone to continue to allow standard licensed clients to have non-persistent pools. This is primarily because Composer is being deprecated. With 2006, all versions of Horizon have access to this feature. Previously, clients would need to have Horizon Enterprise licensing to be entitled to use Instant Clones. This leads us to the biggest change that I see in this release. You can of course, force the traditional method of parent cloning but it would seem to be a waste of resources to me. Desktop pools with VMs leveraging HIGH memory requirements will automatically be provisioned with this method for runtime efficiency. The machines will be cloned directly from the replica without a ParentVM being created resulting in much less memory needed to host the VMs but at the expense of a slower provisioning process. Typically, if the machine is an RDS server (with a lot of RAM), it will create a ‘parent-less clone’. The way Smart Provisioning works is that it will fundamentally change how a provisioned VM gets pushed out. This is a pretty big change under the covers but might not be noticed or utilized by a lot of my clients. This feature does require advanced licensing though. It is configured on Client (2006+ only) during the install and then activated with the agent via Group Policy. There is also a specific optimization pack for Microsoft Teams. You will need to install it correctly though. Better experiences with Webcam usage and video conferencing. There have also been some optimizations of the RTAV (RealTime Audio Video) to help improve user experience in Zoom, Teams, Webex, etc. Web Meeting Improvementsīlast Extreme got some love in the new release and there is now support for up to two 8K monitors with it. Here’s what I think you need to know about it. In my opinion, this could also have been called Horizon 7.5 but VMware instead chose to start using the Microsoft practice of using the year (20) and the release month (06) for its new versioning. Horizon 2006 is the next version of VMware’s End-User Computing platform. Is it VMware Horizon 8 or Horizon 2006? Confusing times call for confusing naming standards. ![]()
