Q81. An administrator disables an RDS farm to perform maintenance. What happens to users who already have published applications open from that farm?

  1. Their sessions are immediately terminated
    2. Their Active Directory accounts are temporarily disabled
    3. Their applications are automatically moved to another farm
    4. They can continue using applications that were already open

Correct Answer: 4. They can continue using applications that were already open

Explanation: Disabling a Horizon farm prevents users from launching new published desktops or applications associated with that farm. However, users who already have sessions open can continue using those existing resources. This behavior allows administrators to gradually drain a farm before maintenance rather than abruptly terminating active user work. Administrators can then monitor existing sessions and handle them according to the maintenance plan. Disabling a farm does not disable Active Directory accounts, automatically transfer active application sessions to another farm, or immediately terminate existing sessions. This makes farm disabling useful when preparing RDS hosts for controlled maintenance.

Q82. A Horizon administrator wants disconnected desktop users to be logged off after a specified period rather than immediately. Which setting should be configured?

  1. Log Off After Disconnect
    2. Category Folder
    3. Client Restrictions
    4. Smart Provisioning

Correct Answer: 1. Log Off After Disconnect

Explanation: The Log Off After Disconnect setting determines how Horizon handles a user session after the client disconnects from a desktop. Administrators can configure the session to log off immediately, never log off automatically, or log off after a specified number of minutes. This provides flexibility for balancing user convenience with resource consumption and security requirements. For example, retaining a disconnected session temporarily allows a user to reconnect and continue working, while eventually logging off abandoned sessions releases resources. Category Folder affects resource presentation, Client Restrictions control endpoint eligibility, and Smart Provisioning determines how instant clones are created.

Q83. What does the Empty Session Timeout setting control for application sessions?

  1. How long a user can remain authenticated to Horizon Console
    2. How long an application session remains open after all applications in that session are closed
    3. How long a virtual machine can remain powered off
    4. How long a Connection Server certificate remains valid

Correct Answer: 2. How long an application session remains open after all applications in that session are closed

Explanation: An application session becomes empty when all published applications running within that session have been closed. The Empty Session Timeout determines how long Horizon keeps that empty session available. Keeping the session briefly can make subsequent application launches faster because Horizon can reuse the existing session. On the other hand, disconnecting or logging off empty sessions more quickly can conserve RDSH server resources. Administrators can choose an immediate timeout, a specified duration, or other supported behavior. The setting does not affect Horizon Console authentication, virtual-machine power states, or TLS certificate expiration.

Q84. What is the purpose of the Bypass Session Timeout option for supported Horizon application sessions?

  1. To bypass user authentication
    2. To bypass TLS certificate checking
    3. To allow applications to install without administrator rights
    4. To prevent supported application sessions from being disconnected by normal maximum or idle session timeout limits

Correct Answer: 4. To prevent supported application sessions from being disconnected by normal maximum or idle session timeout limits

Explanation: Bypass Session Timeout can be enabled for supported application-session configurations when an organization needs applications to remain running beyond normal maximum-session or global idle-session timeout limits. This can be useful for specialized long-running workloads. The option has restrictions; for example, it is not intended for every type of Horizon application deployment or unauthenticated use case. Administrators should carefully evaluate security and resource implications before enabling indefinitely running sessions. The option does not eliminate authentication, disable TLS validation, or grant application installation privileges. Its specific purpose is to change timeout behavior for supported application sessions.

Q85. An administrator enables the Horizon option that allows users to restart their assigned desktops. Which operation performs a graceful operating-system restart?

  1. Reset
    2. Refresh
    3. Restart
    4. Recompose

Correct Answer: 3. Restart

Explanation: Horizon distinguishes between a reset and a restart operation. A restart performs a graceful operating-system restart, allowing Windows to go through its normal shutdown and startup process. A reset is more abrupt and is comparable to resetting the virtual machine without a graceful guest operating-system shutdown. When administrators enable the option allowing users to restart their machines, users can perform appropriate recovery actions without contacting support for every issue. Administrators should still understand the difference between operations because an abrupt reset can cause loss of unsaved data. Refresh and recompose refer to different desktop lifecycle concepts rather than a standard graceful restart.

Q86. For a dedicated instant-clone desktop pool, what can the Refresh OS Disk After Logoff setting accomplish?

  1. Change the user’s Active Directory password
    2. Restore the operating-system disk according to a configured refresh policy
    3. Update the Unified Access Gateway appliance
    4. Reinstall Horizon Client on the endpoint

Correct Answer: 2. Restore the operating-system disk according to a configured refresh policy

Explanation: Dedicated instant-clone pools can be configured to refresh the operating-system disk after logoff according to supported conditions. For example, administrators can configure the OS disk to refresh every time the user logs off, after a particular number of days, or when disk growth reaches a specified threshold. This can help maintain a controlled desktop state while still using dedicated user assignment. The feature is related to the virtual desktop’s OS disk and does not modify Active Directory passwords, upgrade Unified Access Gateway, or reinstall Horizon Client. Administrators should select refresh behavior based on application persistence and user-data requirements.

Q87. Before taking a snapshot that will be used to create an instant-clone desktop pool, what should be done to the golden image VM according to Omnissa guidance?

  1. Shut down the golden image VM
    2. Convert it into a Connection Server
    3. Remove it from vCenter Server
    4. Start a Horizon Client session on it

Correct Answer: 1. Shut down the golden image VM

Explanation: Omnissa’s current instant-clone pool worksheet instructs administrators to shut down the golden image in vCenter Server before taking the snapshot used for the pool. The snapshot represents the defined source state from which Horizon will provision instant-clone desktops. Properly preparing and shutting down the image helps provide a consistent deployment source. The golden image remains a managed virtual machine and should not be converted into a Connection Server or removed from vCenter. Horizon Client sessions are also unrelated to preparing the provisioning snapshot. Image preparation is an important step because problems in the source image can propagate across all provisioned desktops.

Q88. What is the purpose of the Horizon session pre-launch feature for published applications?

  1. To install the application before Horizon Agent starts
    2. To start every user’s desktop when Connection Server starts
    3. To establish an application session before the user launches the application, reducing launch time
    4. To bypass application entitlements

Correct Answer: 3. To establish an application session before the user launches the application, reducing launch time

Explanation: Session pre-launch allows Horizon to establish a published application session before the user actually selects and opens the application. Because part of the session-startup work has already occurred, frequently used published applications can start more quickly from the user’s perspective. Omnissa supports this functionality for appropriate application pools and global application entitlement configurations. It is not intended for remote desktops. Pre-launch does not install applications, bypass entitlements, or automatically start every user’s full desktop. Administrators should consider additional resource consumption because pre-launched sessions can use RDSH capacity even before the corresponding application is opened.

Q89. A Horizon administrator enables Client Restrictions on a desktop pool. Which endpoint type is specifically supported by this restriction mechanism?

  1. Any HTML Access browser
    2. Windows client computers meeting the required Active Directory conditions
    3. Any Linux thin client automatically
    4. Any unmanaged mobile phone

Correct Answer: 2. Windows client computers meeting the required Active Directory conditions

Explanation: Horizon Client Restrictions can restrict new access to entitled resources based on approved client computers. Omnissa documentation specifies that the feature is supported with Windows client computers and requires appropriate Active Directory security-group configuration. When Client Restrictions are enabled, non-Windows clients and HTML Access clients cannot launch the restricted resources. Importantly, Client Restrictions do not replace user entitlements; both the user and the endpoint must satisfy the relevant requirements. This capability is useful when organizations want certain sensitive desktops or applications accessible only from managed Windows devices rather than from arbitrary browsers, mobile endpoints, or other client platforms.

Q90. If no other RDS load-balancing metrics or custom scripts are selected, which factor does Horizon use by default for load balancing?

  1. Number of App Volumes packages
    2. Horizon Client version
    3. Active Directory group count
    4. Session count

Correct Answer: 4. Session count

Explanation: Horizon can use several metrics when determining RDSH server load, including CPU usage, memory, disk activity, and session-related information. Omnissa documentation states that if no load-balancing settings are specifically selected and a custom load-balancing script is not configured, Horizon uses session count by default. This provides a straightforward way to distribute sessions across RDS hosts. Administrators can configure additional metrics when workload characteristics require more sophisticated load calculations. Application-package counts, Horizon Client versions, and Active Directory group numbers are not default RDSH load-balancing metrics. Session count therefore serves as the baseline distribution metric in the described configuration.

Q91. What happens to standard load-balancing metrics when an administrator enables a custom load-balancing script for an RDS farm?

  1. Horizon ignores the other standard load-balancing metrics and uses the custom load value for the server load index
    2. Horizon disables the RDS farm permanently
    3. Horizon automatically removes all RDS hosts
    4. Connection Server stops monitoring sessions

Correct Answer: 1. Horizon ignores the other standard load-balancing metrics and uses the custom load value for the server load index

Explanation: Horizon supports custom RDSH load-balancing scripts for organizations that need workload-specific calculations beyond the standard built-in metrics. When the custom-script option is enabled, Horizon uses the CustomLoadValue supplied through the expected registry location to obtain the server load index instead of calculating it from the normal load-balancing metrics. Certain thresholds associated with logon-storm handling can still apply. Enabling a custom script does not disable the farm, remove RDS hosts, or prevent Connection Server from managing sessions. Administrators should ensure their custom script reliably updates the required value so Horizon receives accurate load information.

Q92. What does the Connecting Session Threshold help protect RDS hosts against?

  1. Certificate expiration
    2. Golden-image corruption
    3. Excessive numbers of simultaneous new logins during a logon storm
    4. Unauthorized App Volumes packaging

Correct Answer: 3. Excessive numbers of simultaneous new logins during a logon storm

Explanation: The Connecting Session Threshold controls how many sessions can concurrently log in to an individual RDSH agent machine. It is specifically useful for logon-storm handling because a sudden surge of simultaneous user logins can place substantial CPU, memory, disk, and profile-processing load on an RDS host. By restricting the number of concurrent connecting sessions, administrators can reduce the likelihood that a single RDSH server becomes overwhelmed. Reconnecting sessions are treated differently from new connecting sessions in this mechanism. The threshold does not address certificates, golden-image integrity, or application packaging permissions. It is an RDSH capacity-protection setting.

Q93. An administrator configures the session type of an instant-clone pool as Application. What are the pool VMs intended to host?

  1. Only Horizon Connection Server replicas
    2. Published applications rather than regular desktop sessions
    3. Only App Volumes databases
    4. Only Unified Access Gateway services

Correct Answer: 2. Published applications rather than regular desktop sessions

Explanation: Horizon supports VM Hosted Applications by allowing supported desktop pools to be configured with different session types. When the session type is set to Application, the virtual machines in the pool are used to host applications rather than functioning as ordinary desktop-session resources. Another supported option is Desktop, while Desktop and Application allows the machine to serve either purpose according to the applicable session behavior. The VMs do not become Connection Servers, App Volumes databases, or Unified Access Gateway appliances. This feature provides organizations with another method of publishing applications from suitable virtual desktop operating systems where appropriate.

Q94. An administrator enables RDS session collaboration for a farm. Which display protocol is required for the session owner and collaborators according to Omnissa guidance?

  1. Microsoft RDP only
    2. SSH
    3. PCoIP only
    4. Horizon Blast

Correct Answer: 4. Horizon Blast

Explanation: Session Collaboration allows a user to invite other supported users to join an existing remote desktop session for collaborative work, demonstrations, or assistance. Omnissa’s farm configuration guidance states that both the session owner and collaborators must use the Horizon Blast protocol for this functionality. This requirement means administrators should ensure that protocol configuration and network access support Blast before enabling session collaboration as part of the user experience. SSH is not a Horizon remote desktop display protocol, and Microsoft RDP or PCoIP alone does not satisfy this specific requirement. The collaboration setting is configured as part of the applicable Horizon farm capabilities.

Q95. Which statement best describes the Load Index Threshold used with RDSH load balancing?

  1. It defines the number of Active Directory users in a farm
    2. It determines how many App Volumes packages can be mounted
    3. It changes the maximum number of desktops in a pool
    4. It can cause an RDS host to reject new session logins when its calculated load becomes sufficiently high

Correct Answer: 4. It can cause an RDS host to reject new session logins when its calculated load becomes sufficiently high

Explanation: The Load Index Threshold is a logon-storm and capacity-protection control used with Horizon RDSH load balancing. Administrators can configure a threshold at which an RDS host begins denying new session logins because its calculated load index has become too high. Reconnecting sessions can be handled differently. The setting can prevent heavily loaded servers from receiving additional new sessions and help preserve performance for users already connected. It does not count Active Directory users, control application package attachments, or determine a desktop pool’s VM maximum. The threshold works with Horizon’s calculated RDS server load information.

Q96. What does selecting Desktop and Application as the session type for a supported VM-hosted application pool allow?

  1. The VM can host either a regular desktop session or an application session
    2. Every user automatically receives both sessions simultaneously
    3. The VM operates as a Connection Server and RDSH server simultaneously
    4. Horizon bypasses user entitlements

Correct Answer: 1. The VM can host either a regular desktop session or an application session

Explanation: When Desktop and Application is selected as the session type, a virtual machine in the supported pool can be used for either a standard desktop session or an application session. Omnissa documentation notes that the first connection to a particular virtual machine determines that machine’s session type for the applicable usage. This provides flexibility where organizations need both desktop and VM-hosted application capabilities from the same pool design. The feature does not mean every user automatically receives both types of sessions, nor does it transform the VM into Horizon infrastructure. Normal user entitlement and brokering rules still apply.

Q97. An organization wants to distribute RDS sessions across hosts according to processor utilization. Which load-balancing metric should be configured?

  1. Category Folder
    2. Client Restrictions
    3. CPU usage threshold
    4. Display Name

Correct Answer: 3. CPU usage threshold

Explanation: Horizon’s RDS load-balancing configuration can use CPU utilization as one factor when calculating the load index for an RDS host. Administrators configure a CPU usage threshold percentage, allowing Horizon to consider processor pressure when determining how suitable a server is for additional sessions. This can provide more intelligent distribution than session count alone when workloads vary significantly in CPU demand. Omnissa documentation notes that CPU usage is not considered unless it is configured as a load-balancing metric. Category Folder and Display Name affect resource presentation, while Client Restrictions control which endpoint computers can launch entitled resources.

Q98. Why might an administrator configure session pre-launch for a frequently used published application?

  1. To replace the RDSH servers with physical desktops
    2. To eliminate application entitlement requirements
    3. To convert the application into a local installation
    4. To reduce perceived application startup time for users

Correct Answer: 4. To reduce perceived application startup time for users

Explanation: The primary user-experience benefit of session pre-launch is faster access to frequently used published applications. Horizon prepares the underlying session before the user explicitly opens the application, reducing the time spent establishing the RDSH session at launch. This can be particularly beneficial where session creation, profile processing, or environment initialization adds noticeable delay. The tradeoff is that pre-launched sessions may consume server resources before users actually need the application, so capacity planning remains important. The feature does not remove entitlement controls, install the application locally, or replace RDS hosts. It optimizes published application launch behavior.

Q99. Which session states are included when Horizon calculates session count for session-load distribution?

  1. Only connected sessions
    2. Only disconnected sessions
    3. Connected, disconnected, and pending sessions
    4. Only sessions created through HTML Access

Correct Answer: 3. Connected, disconnected, and pending sessions

Explanation: Horizon’s session-load distribution calculations can consider the total session count across resources. Omnissa documentation states that connected, disconnected, and pending sessions are all included in this total. Including multiple session states provides a more complete picture of how much session capacity has already been committed or consumed. Looking only at currently connected sessions could underestimate the effective load because disconnected sessions can still retain resources and pending sessions represent incoming work. The calculation is not limited to HTML Access or a specific client type. Understanding session-count behavior helps administrators interpret Horizon’s resource-distribution decisions in multi-resource environments.

Q100. An administrator enables Client Restrictions on a Horizon application pool. What else must still be true before a user can launch the application?

  1. The user must be a Domain Administrator
    2. The user must also be entitled to the application pool
    3. The application must run through direct RDP
    4. The endpoint must be a Connection Server

Correct Answer: 2. The user must also be entitled to the application pool

Explanation: Client Restrictions provide an additional endpoint-based access condition; they do not replace Horizon user entitlement. Omnissa documentation makes clear that a user who is not entitled to an application or desktop cannot gain access merely because the user’s client computer belongs to the approved Active Directory security group. Both the resource entitlement and the endpoint restriction requirements must be satisfied. This layered approach allows administrators to limit sensitive Horizon resources to authorized users operating from approved Windows computers. The user does not need Domain Administrator rights, direct RDP is not required, and an ordinary client endpoint does not become a Connection Server.
