The IT team for a small government organization wants to deploy Horizon Apps.
-> It needs to provide Windows desktops to two groups of users.
-> Most users only need a few Windows applications.
-> It wants to minimize storage space required.
-> It determined that they need 4 RDS Hosts, but more will be needed in the next 6 to 8 weeks.
-> It installed and configured RDS on a Windows server VM, installed the Horizon Agent, and then the Windows applications.
What steps must the organization perform next to create a scalable and flexible Horizon Apps deployment?

A. B. C. D.B.
The organization has installed and configured RDS on a Windows server VM, installed the Horizon Agent, and then the Windows applications. To create a scalable and flexible Horizon Apps deployment, the organization needs to perform the following steps:
A. Create a manual Horizon RDS Farm, clone the RDS VM 4 times, create and entitle an RDS desktop pool, and create and entitle RDS application pools.
This answer is not recommended because it suggests creating a manual RDS farm, which can be time-consuming and prone to errors. Additionally, cloning VMs can lead to compatibility issues and consume a significant amount of storage space.
B. Create an automated Horizon RDS Farm, select the RDS VM with the Horizon Agent, create and entitle two RDS desktop pools, and create and entitle RDS application pools.
This answer is a viable option as it suggests creating an automated RDS farm, which simplifies the deployment process and reduces the potential for errors. Additionally, creating two RDS desktop pools allows the organization to provide desktops to the two groups of users with different requirements. The creation of RDS application pools enables the organization to provide users with only the necessary applications, minimizing storage space required.
C. Create an automated Horizon RDS Farm, select the RDS VM with the Horizon Agent, create and entitle an RDS desktop pool, and create and entitle RDS application pools.
This answer is a viable option, but it only suggests creating one RDS desktop pool, which may not be sufficient to provide desktops to the two groups of users with different requirements.
D. Clone the RDS VM 4 times, create a manual Horizon RDS Farm, create and entitle two RDS desktop pools, and create and entitle RDS application pools.
This answer is not recommended because it suggests cloning VMs, which can lead to compatibility issues and consume a significant amount of storage space. Additionally, creating a manual RDS farm can be time-consuming and prone to errors.
In conclusion, the best answer is B, which suggests creating an automated Horizon RDS Farm, selecting the RDS VM with the Horizon Agent, creating and entitling two RDS desktop pools, and creating and entitling RDS application pools. This answer simplifies the deployment process, reduces the potential for errors, and meets the organization's requirements.
