VMware App Volumes series: The broker integration
Broker integration
Just continue through the wizard to install.
Agree to the license agreement.. or not 🙂
The broker needs to be connected with the manager so that the broker can check with the manager if an AppStack is needed. Fill in the manager address to connect the two together.
Continue to finish the installation.
The installation will start and after a very short while we’re done.
At this point you have the manager installed and configured. You have to manager setup so that one particular group of users can login and manage the AppStacks.
You have a reference machine configured and the agent installed. You provisioned applications in your first AppStack and assigned it to a user or a group of users.
You now only need to install that same agent in the VDI golden image and recompose the desktop pool to enable App volumes to your users.
What is left at this point? well we could talk about a write-able volume and of course I could show you that the applications are actually there when I log on. In my next article i will write about the management and show you in a video that the Apps are there.
