11.2 Adding RDSH Template to SCVMM
NOTE: SCVMM is required only when the hypervisor is Hyper-V.
The RDSH template must first be added to SCVMM as a VM template and then imported to vWorkspace as
a template while creating a Session Host provisioning group.
After creating a RDSH VM on one of the Hyper-V hosts, log in to the SCVMM server to add it as a template.
1. Shut down the RDSH VM that you want to use as your template before you begin.
2. Start the Virtual Machine Manager Console (the console is installed to the SCVMM VM during the
VMM installation) and click Library in the lower left pane.
3. Click the arrow next to Templates in the upper left pane to expose menu options and right-click
VM Templates. Select Create VM Template.
4. In the Select Source window, select From an existing virtual machine that is deployed on a
host and click Browse. Select the RDSH VM that you want to use as a template and click OK.
5. Click Next and click Yes to proceed. The source VM is destroyed on the Hyper-V host but the
settings and VHDX are imported to the SCVMM server and library.
6. Provide a name and optional description for the template and click Next.
7. Click Next on the configure hardware page and the configure operating system page.
8. Select the SCVMM server from the list of library servers and click Next.
9. Click the Browse button and select the library folder that was created earlier on the Nutanix
cluster. Click OK and click Next.
10. Click Create to complete the task. If the job fails immediately, verify that the desktop VM is not
running. Shut down the desktop VM if it is running. In the Jobs window, right-click the Create
template job and select Restart. After the job completes, close the Jobs window
11. The template should now appear in the Templates pane in VMM.
12. Right-click the template and select Properties.
13. Click Hardware Configuration in the left pane and use the scroll bar in the middle of the page
until you see the Advanced section.
14. Click Availability under the Advanced section and select the Make this virtual machine highly
available check box. The default Medium priority is sufficient.
