The vRealize Operations for Horizon desktop agent runs on each desktop source in your Horizon environment. It collects metrics and performance data and sends them to the Horizon Adapter.
The desktop agent is installed as part of Horizon Agent . The following table lists the version of the desktop agent included in each version of Horizon Agent.
Important: Due to an existing limitation, you must install the
vRealize Operations for Horizon 6.6 desktop agent separately even if you choose to install it with
Horizon 7.6. This limitation is resolved in
Horizon 7.7.
| Horizon Agent Version | Desktop Agent Version |
|---|---|
| 7.0 |
6.2.1 |
| 7.0.1 to 7.2 |
6.4 |
| 7.3.2 |
6.5 |
| 7.4 and 7.5 |

Note: The standalone desktop agent installer is not supported for
Horizon 7.8 or later. If you are using
Horizon 7.8, you must install the desktop agent when you install
Horizon Agent. To do so, select
vRealize Operations Desktop Agent on the
Custom Setup page of the
Horizon Agent installation wizard. For more information, see
Install Horizon Agent on a Virtual Machine in the
Setting Up Virtual Desktops in Horizon 7 document.
