Auto-connect to default VDI desktop pool when login to View Portal

[goranhedman]

HI,

I'm about to setup a VDI solution (view 3.1) where the users should run a single application in a non-persistent VDI-pool. Users connect through View Portal. Since the user has only one entitlement (to a particular pool), I would like them to be auto-connected to the VM. Feels a bit unnecessary to have the users to do an extra click to select the only pool they can access.

Any suggestions how to achieve that?

You can specify desktops by using the command line options. Check out this document and see if it helps, .

Thanx for showing me a useful tool. But unfurtunally it didn't solve my issue.

After login to View Portal I still get a web page with a list of (one) available desktop pool that I have to click to access my VM. That's step I want to exclude. I want the users VM to start directly after login. Any more ideas?

There is no way to configure an auto-login / etc. if using the View Portal.

OK,

I guess the same goes for using view client directly instead of using view portal. Not possible?

You can automate the View client sith command line parameters or also with registry parameters.

Thanx,

I'll look in to command line parameters after vacation. I'll get back if I need some help how to do it.
