Running Virtual Machines on Hyper-V

Horizon 7 supports virtual machines running on Hyper-V hypervisor version 2012R2 UR12.

The following operating systems are supported:

• VDI: Windows 10 v 1909 64-bit
• RDS Hosts: Windows 2016 Standard 64-bit and Wiindows 2102 R2 Standard 64-bit

Running Horizon Agent in virtual machines on Hyper-V has the following limitations and known issues:

• Horizon Agent installation in Desktop mode is not supported on Windows Server OS.
• When you click the CAD button on the Hyper-V console, the CAD window also displays on the remote desktop session.
• Hyper-V does not support GPU-related features: vGPU, 3D RDSH, HEVC.
  Note: Hyper-V based virtual machines can directly leverage GPU capability available to the Horizon Agent operating system. Verify the graphics support with the third-party virtualization platform vendor (Microsoft).
