Scenario: The company is designing a cost-efficient environment for the call center workers. The IT department is replacing the existing thin clients with newer models. Only block storage is available on the shared storage of the hypervisor. How should the architect recommend that Hosted VDI be provisioned to fulfill the virtualization requirements for the call center?

Question

Accepted Answer

A. By using Machine Creation Services Machine Creation Services (MCS) is designed for provisioning virtual desktops by creating individual virtual machines (VMs) from a master image. For hosted VDI, especially non-persistent desktops commonly used in call centers, MCS efficiently leverages hypervisor features like snapshots and delta disks on block storage to create many identical VMs with minimal administrative overhead.

Answer

B. By using Provisioning Services Provisioning Services (PVS) primarily streams a single vDisk to multiple target devices, which is generally more complex to implement for individual VDI desktops than MCS and might be overkill for VDI when block storage is present.

Answer

C. By manually installing the operating system Manually installing the operating system on each VDI desktop is not scalable or efficient for provisioning a large number of virtual desktops.

Answer

D. By using cloned VM templates Using cloned VM templates is a manual process that MCS automates and optimizes, making it less efficient for large-scale VDI deployment.
