Standard provisionning duration ? Empty task pane ?
Hello,
I've a 2 basic questions :
1/how long does it take to publish an image with Horizon ?
We've a brand new Horizon infrastructure, Two big servers and ssd/iscsi external storage. No load yet.
We made a very simple master. Only Windows 10 updated (22H2), with Horizon, Appv & DEM clients installed (55Go thin provisionning, VMX3). No application, no appvolumes, no DEM, nothing...
So my question is : how long do you thing it should take to publish this master as an instant clone (from submit to instant clone ready) ? Roughly.
2/ Empty task pane ?
Have you ever seen anything in the 'Tasks pane' in the Horizon console ?
And if yes, what, when ?
how long does it take to publish an image with Horizon ? Empty task pane ?

you won't see anything under tasks but should eb able to see it things happening in vCenter. The pool overview should also show a state of where it is. Even in my pretty slow lab it's usually about 15-20 minutes for a new GI to be ready for deploying desktops. ANy desktop after that is a matter of seconds.
Thanks for the answer.
15-20 minutes : for a few weeks, that's the best time we reached. Never less than 15 minutes. I'm not sure if this is the minimum we could hope with Horizon ?
Because, currently, we have an issue and our best time is 45 minutes. Sometimes up to 2 hours. VMware and horizon support are working on it (but with no success for months).
I'm not sure to understand your answer about the empty Tasks ? Do you mean in this pane, we should see Vcenter logs or tasks ?
Because I was wondering if it could be a symptom of our current issue (Horizon could have difficulties to get updates from vcenter).

look in vCenter directly you should see activities around the template / parent / replica vm's in there. 15-25 minutes is acceptable since it's only once per pool per image deployment. You can deploy the new one as secondary image and have it ready to fo for days before updating the desktops themselves.

So, we were finally able to correct the provisioning duration problem of our platform. Republishing a pool went from 1h30 to 12 minutes (even 8 minutes for a new pool and a very light image).
The issue was with the CBRC which was bogus. And to completly stop it you have to configure Horizon and ESX properties and change the Horizon ADALM bases for existing pool.

No success for the empty pane, whatever type of pool.
