Provide unique environment for each and every user ? Customize
every environment with different apps and settings ? Grant users
more control to allow them install and modify applciations ? Run

2 Primary Models: Personal VMs 1 VHD per user, VHD state full
Temporary Pooled VMs VHDs shared between users, state reset at
logoff Golden Image User 1 User n Day 2 Day n Day 2 Day n Golden
Image 1 1 n n User 1 Day 1Day 2Day n PoolDay 1Day 2Day 3 Clone User
1 Personal VMs: Temporary Pooled VMs: How Important are these 2
scenarios? What % of your VDI user population will use each
scenario? What type of users will use each scenario? In the pooled
VMs how do you plan to handle user state? In pooled VMs how often
do you hope to refresh the pool with new images? What features do
you need to help place and mange these VMs? What type of load
management? Support for VM libraries?
Slide 22
User state can bloat VHD DO: Use roaming or mandatory profiles.
Use folder redirection Place profile servers close to VDI hosts
Dont: allow folder synchronization if using pooled vm Place OSTs /
PSTs in redirected folders or profile User pro-quota to stop users
abusing their desktop
Slide 23
DO: Have planned patching cycles Understand how pathing will
affect re-creation of master images Understand how patching will
affect VHD size over time Use automated patching services Use App-V
to reduce patching of apps in image DONT: Allow patching to dictate
use of pooled vs personal
Slide 24
More apps in image = more disk More apps in image = hard to
patch More apps in image = more golden images
Slide 25
Network bandwidth planning is key: Plan for use of profiles and
redirection Plan for per user bandwidth required for RDP / ICA etc
Ensure the host VM server has adequate NIC bandwidth to other
server infrastructure (applications, file, print etc) Make sure the
user of SAN to host the VHDs is factored if SAN will run over an IP
network Microsoft Confidential
Slide 26
In pooled / temporary VM model vm may still need to be domain
joined Sysprep takes too long / requires reboot Other vendors have
tools to speed this process up HOWEVER sysprep is the only
supported way to prepare a machine for use Microsoft
