Upgrade View Clients. See “Upgrade View Clients,” on page 51 and “Upgrade View Local Mode Clients,”

on page 52.

Upgrade View Composer Desktop Pools

Part of the final phase of a Horizon View upgrade includes upgrading View Composer desktop pools.

Upgrading pools that were created with View Composer requires that you use a snapshot taken after

upgrading View Agent on the parent virtual machine.

IMPORTANT If you use View Composer linked clones and you want to use the space reclamation feature

available with vSphere 5.1 virtual machines, you must configure certain settings in View LDAP and in View

Administrator, in addition to performing the steps in this procedure. For a complete list of tasks, see “Tasks

for Upgrading Pools to Use Space Reclamation,” on page 50.

NOTE If you are also upgrading the virtual hardware version, such as upgrading to virtual hardware

version 8 or later, included with vSphere 5 or later, the snapshot of the upgraded parent virtual machine is

used to upgrade the virtual hardware version of the rest of the virtual machines in the linked-clone pool.

Upgrading in this way, from one virtual hardware version (or compatibility level) to a higher version, is

supported. You cannot, however, recompose linked clones to a lower hardware version than their current

version. For example, you cannot recompose hardware version 8 clones to a parent virtual machine that is

hardware version 7.

Prerequisites

Complete the procedure described in “Upgrade View Composer,” on page 25.

Complete the procedure described in “Upgrade View Connection Servers in a Replicated Group,” on

page 34.

If you are upgrading pools of desktops that will be checked out and run in local mode, complete the

procedure described in “Upgrade View Transfer Server,” on page 41.

If you are also upgrading ESX/ESXi hosts and virtual machines, complete the procedure described in

Chapter 6, “Upgrade ESX/ESXi Hosts and Their Virtual Machines,” on page 45.

To use the 3D rendering feature available with View 5.0 and later releases, you must upgrade the

virtual hardware version to 8 or later in Windows 7 and 8 virtual machines.

To use the space-efficient disk format feature, available with Horizon View 5.2 and later, you must

upgrade vCenter Server, ESXi hosts, virtual machines, and the VMware Tools software in the virtual

machines to VMware vSphere 5.1 or later. That is, the virtual machines must use virtual hardware

version to 9 or later.

Complete the procedure described in “Upgrade View Agent,” on page 47 for upgrading the agent in the

parent virtual machine.

Plan maintenance windows carefully so that recreating and recomposing desktop pools will not

overwhelm the storage array and ESX/ESXi hosts.

Procedure

1 If you disabled provisioning of new virtual machines in preparation for the upgrade, enable

provisioning again.
