Virtual desktop Profile-View 5

I recently learned that Profile Management, one of the new features of VMware View 5.0, is very excited and I have a little bit of "Uneasy", because Profile has always been a headache. Because the OS version is different, the Profile will be different. It is even harder to manage the Profile. When I see View 5 Profile, I am very pleased. Because of my concerns, I can find a better solution in each policy. To this end, we have increased our confidence in the future of virtual desktops.

The concerns are as follows:
1. Is configuration management too complicated?
You only need to operate the Windows Active Directory group policy function (basic IT skills)
Enable Profile Management:
 

2 \ configure the storage location of the Profile:
Note that you must use the UNC path.
 

 
3. If your virtual desktop pool is floating, there will be a large number of mobile connection users, and some temporary Profile data may be generated on the desktop. What should I do? View 5 allows the user to delete the data when "deregister". It is reasonable! And for Windows XP/7.
 

4. synchronize local settings with roaming settings. Windows XP/7 takes effect.
 

5. Special files and files can be preloaded.
 

6. pre-loading is prohibited for special files and files to speed up Profile loading and improve user experience.
 

7. synchronize with Windows roaming configuration files
 

 

8. exclude non-synchronization of specific Windows roaming configuration files and folders, and accelerate Profile .....
 

 

9. Specific files and files are not roaming
 

2. Folder Redirection, effective for Windows XP/7.
 

Here, I can only say that the Profile function of View 5 is "Perfect PM". Believe it or not, I believe it.
