Build the desktop you intend to deliver via View (In this example I’m using Windows 7 Pro x32 bit). Either way its still good practice to ‘prep’ desktops first. Note: If you are doing manual assignment of desktops to users, then this is not as important, but if you are going to deploy linked clone desktops this is VERY important. In addition there are various changes you need to make, both to streamline the virtual machine, and make it more efficient for VMware View. To actually deliver a virtual desktop you need to a) have a desktop built, and b) have the VMware View ‘agent’ installed on it. In Part 1 we looked at setting up your connection server. Note: This is an old post for VMware view version 5, you might want to read Deploying VMware Horizon View instead.
