For dedicated user assignments, you can verify if the user that is assigned to the virtual machine is the user that connects to the virtual desktop or not.

Prerequisites

  • Verify that the virtual machine belongs to a dedicated-assignment pool. In Horizon Console, the desktop pool assignment appears in the User Assignment column on the Desktop Pools page.
  • Verify that you have entitled users to the desktop pool.

Procedure

  1. In Horizon Console, select Inventory > Machines.
  2. On the vCenter tab, choose to view the assigned user or connected user.
    Option Description
    Assigned User The Assigned User column displays the user who is assigned to the desktop pool.
    Note: The Assigned User column does not display any user for a floating desktop pool.
    Connected User The Connected User column displays the user who is connected to the virtual machine. Most of the time, the Connected User is the same as the Assigned User when the assigned user is connected to the desktop. At other times, when an administrator is connected to the virtual machine, the Connected User column displays the administrator.
