Use the Update Agent Software feature to update agents for Dedicated Desktop - Traditional Clone assignments.
You can also update agent software for a Dedicated Desktop - Instant Clone assignment by updating the image and pushing changes to the assignment. This process is described in #GUID-F6A1C708-B3C0-46A5-918C-A6B2A69B0E52.
In order for the agent update feature to work, you must have created an Agents file share and added it to Horizon Cloud. This means that you select Agents for the file share type when you create the file share. Agents file shares are used only for importing agent update files. See Managing File Shares.
The agent update feature allows automated update of all the agents in an assignment in a single operation.
The system makes regular contact with the VMware CDS software distribution network and downloads agent updates automatically to a file share that you have set up on a local machine. The update files are then automatically imported into the system and made available to assignments.
The availability of updates is indicated on the Assignments page, where you can apply them to assignments. When you initiate the upgrade task on an assignment, all VMs in the assignment are be updated as part of that task.
Your VMware representative can adjust the interval between scans for new agents and the wait time for scans after tenant startup if you request it.
