You must configure Dynamic Environment Manager before you can use it to create smart policies for remote desktop features.

To configure Dynamic Environment Manager, follow the configuration instructions in the VMware Dynamic Environment Manager Administration Guide. The following configuration steps supplement the information in that document.

  • To ensure that Horizon Smart Policy settings are refreshed when users reconnect to desktop sessions, use the Dynamic Environment Manager Management Console to create a triggered task. Set the trigger to Reconnect session, set the action to User Environment refresh, and select Horizon Smart Policies for the refresh.
    Note: If you create the triggered task while a user is logged in to the remote desktop, the user must log off from the desktop for the triggered task to take effect.
