1. MODULE 5: INTEGRATING WITH THE ENVIRONMENT

2. Agenda AD Integration Integration with brokers (automated and non)

3. DIRECTORY JUNCTIONS

4. Supported Directories Novell eDirectory 4.91 Microsoft Active Directory 2003, 2008, 2008 R2 But any LDAP directory should work. Unidesk does NOT write AD but instead reads and caches information locally

5. AD Junctions Setup Configured in the Users Tab and can be setup at the root of a LDAP directory or down level Must have rights and ability to browse to the DN of the container or OU you wish to set as the directory junction point Attribute mapping is setup for AD but can be changed for Novel

7. SETTING UP AN LDAP JUNCTION Lab

8. BROKER INTEGRATION

9. Supported Integrated Brokers VMware View 5.0, 5.1, 5.1.1 and 5.2 in Unidesk 2.1 – Persona not supported, VMware has a broken filter driver – View Storage Accelerator not supported XenDesktop 5.5, 5.6 (all versions) Must have AD junction setup prior to broker integration This support allows for Unidesk to automatically add desktops to pools/groups and set maintenance mode on desktops

10. Non-Integrated Brokers Unidesk desktops can be manually added to most brokers. Some of these that we have seen include: Dell/Quest vWorkspace LeoStream And even one homegrown broker

11. Adding Desktops to Pools Pool selection during desktop creation will allow you to Create New pools or Add desktops to existing pools. When adding a desktop Unidesk communicates with a Unidesk Agent installed on the View server or Citrix DDC Desktop is added during build and waits for registration just like a normal desktop VM

12. Admin Desktop VM Created Unidesk Mgmt Appliance Create Desktop(s) Virtual Machines added to Pool View Connection Server Desktop(s) Created in vCenter Agent Starts registers w/ View server During Builds and Updates the VM is placed in View’s Maintenance Mode Client Device

13. To Enable View or Xen Integration Install the VIA_Agent on the View Connection Server or Xen DDC Ensure ports are open between Unidesk MA, Desktop and the controller/server TCP port 390 is used by default Ensure Agent for Broker is installed in desktop (View and XenVDA can both be app layers)

14. Non-Integrated Brokers Simply adding Unidesk desktops to a brokers pool (mainly Persistent desktops) will often work. Each desktop is added to the pool/group after it is built. Broker should be configured not to change the power state of Unidesk VM Non-persistent can be a little bit more tricky and require full integration to Unidesk
