https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-Horizon-7/7.6/horizon-remote-desktop-features/GUID-220442CF-EA01-470E-A381-1BED9BC0B81C.htmlWhen a VMware Blast policy is changed, the effect depends on whether the policy can be changed in real-time or not. If the policy cannot be changed in real-time, then the effect of the change depends on the specific policy that was modified.
Option B is the correct answer: when any VMware Blast policy that cannot be changed in real-time is modified, Microsoft Group Policy Object (GPO) update rules apply. This means that GPOs are updated either manually or by restarting the Horizon Agent.
The Horizon Agent is a software component that is installed on virtual desktops or RDS hosts. It is responsible for managing communication between the virtual desktops or RDS hosts and the Horizon Connection Server. When the Horizon Agent is restarted, it applies the new VMware Blast policy settings.
Option A is incorrect: changing a VMware Blast policy that cannot be changed in real-time does not cause the Microsoft GPO Update service to restart the VMware Tools services.
Option C is also incorrect: VMware Tools, which is a suite of utilities installed in virtual machines, does not detect the change and immediately apply the new setting within 480 seconds.
Option D is also incorrect: the Horizon Client, which is used by end-users to connect to virtual desktops or RDS hosts, does not detect the change and prompt the user to reboot once every 480 seconds.
In summary, when any VMware Blast policy that cannot be changed in real-time is modified, GPOs are updated manually or by restarting the Horizon Agent to apply the new settings.
