Horizon 6.2, vCenter 6.0 UP1 and external platform services controller

[hindbo]

Hi Guys,

This might be the wrong forrum but anyway.

Today we have a completely seperate horizon and server vCenter setup.

I'm in the procress of upgrading to horizon 6.2.1 including the vsphere/esxi. That be to 6.0 from 5.5.

I've updated the horizon to 6.2.1 and now in the process of upgrading to vSphere 6.0

I notice that they introduced the Platform Service Controller.

Would it be possibly/make sence to have only one external Platform Service Controller serving a vCenter for server virtualization and a vCenter for horizon?

Here is a link to the VMware PSC topologies KB.   It should give you an idea of what to look for.

Hi mittim12,

Yes so technically I can change the system in that way.

This leaves back a licensing question.

Would I be able to combine 2 different licensening models from Horizon for vdi and vCenter for server?

I'm not sure I completely understand the question, however you should be able to point both vCenters to the external PSC controllers without any issues.

I am using shared PSC setups with multiple vsphere licensing types without issue. Just make sure you install the right licensing on the right vCenter instance and you should be fine.

Thank guys.

I think this answers all my questions...

Can you make 2 answers as correct answers?
