Horizon requires 4 AD accounts: 2 x LDAP bind accounts and 2 x DJoin accounts. You also have a lengthy bit of work to do before setting up Active Directory (AD). I put in rules inbound to the DC and outbound from the Pod Managers like this below for LDAP, DNS, and NTP (ignore the typo on the label for the DNS rule). I also realized that I have to account for firewall rules between the Pod Manager and my DC. My experience was a ton of disconnects/timeouts. My experience was basically that Domain Controllers hosted in Azure are really difficult. It literally kept me up till about 3 AM trying to get it working. What do I say about this? I FREAKING HATED THIS. Integrating your VMware Horizon Pod with Active Directory Carve the Horizon vNet into subnets for the DMZ, Management Network, and VDI network.Separate the DC and Horizon environment into separate vNets.You will be doing all sorts of stuff, like setting up your virtual networks (VNETs) inside of Azure, generating secrets/principals and more.Ī few of the tips in this section I’ll throw out there is: I built my DC inside of Azure instead of paying $1500 per month for Azure ExpressRoute. Hitting on the Pre-requisites is the first part of your build. Anyone can read the VMware walkthrough, but seeing it live is something else.
We are going to travel down my build with a few videos that I crafted to give some insight and some tips that I picked up on. Numerous clients have been asking their VDI firms about the new Azure solution and its validity. Recently, I built my first Horizon on Azure environment. I’ve spent the abundance of time during our pandemic on trying to grow my VDI experience. Admittedly, VDI is not an area of expertise for me.
