When I then attached and use the application in a Horizon desktop pool with NVIDIA GRID vGPU enabled, the application would have graphics issues and some of the text box and sticky note features wouldn't work.&nbsp; The application did work just fine when I tested it on another pool that didn't use vGPU, but I need the appstack for our vGPU-enabled Horizon desktop pools.</P><P></P><P>I next tried provisioning this app on a vGPU-enabled desktop pool parent VM and keeping the Horizon Client and direct-connect plugin in the VM.&nbsp; This is needed to activate the vGPU graphics in-session.&nbsp; This approach did fix something, since the application is working correctly when I attach it to a vGPU pool user session.&nbsp; During installation when provisioning, I think the Bluebeam installer is doing some type of optimization and profiling steps with the graphics capabilities.&nbsp;&nbsp; </P><P></P><P>I'm just wondering if anyone else has experience provisioning appstacks for attaching on NVIDIA vGPU desktop pools, and if there are any pitfalls I should be on the lookout for by doing it this way (ie. keeping Horizon agent installed so I could activated the NVIDIA graphics).&nbsp; Thanks.</P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 12 May 2018 00:26:34 GMT https://communities.vmware.com/t5/App-Volumes/Ramifications-of-keeping-Horizon-agent-installed-when/m-p/945268#M524 whibr 2018-05-12T00:26:34Z Re: Ramifications of keeping Horizon agent installed when provisioning an Appstack https://communities.vmware.com/t5/App-Volumes/Ramifications-of-keeping-Horizon-agent-installed-when/m-p/945269#M525 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>We also have vGPU machines but have never had an issue with the driver when installing an application.</P><P>I have no idea what the implications would be if you leave the agent there.</P><P></P><P>When starting with Appvolumes we never removed the agent on the packaging machine and haven't had issues with applications.</P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 14 May 2018 10:43:46 GMT https://communities.vmware.com/t5/App-Volumes/Ramifications-of-keeping-Horizon-agent-installed-when/m-p/945269#M525 Ray_handels 2018-05-14T10:43:46Z Re: Ramifications of keeping Horizon agent installed when provisioning an Appstack https://communities.vmware.com/t5/App-Volumes/Ramifications-of-keeping-Horizon-agent-installed-when/m-p/945270#M526 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>I am planning to do it but not now, will keep posted here </P><P></P><P>Regards,</P><P>Vkmr.</P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 16 May 2018 04:03:29 GMT https://communities.vmware.com/t5/App-Volumes/Ramifications-of-keeping-Horizon-agent-installed-when/m-p/945270#M526 Sravan_k 2018-05-16T04:03:29Z
