Once you add your View Connection server during the agent installation, a registration also occurs and you see all registered sources from the View Administrator (will be covered in more details in a future post). The difference if you plan to install the agent on a stand alone VM, physical desktop or terminal server is that you have to point the agent to FQDN or IP address of one of your connection servers building your view pod. The installation steps are similar for every kind of source desktop.

View Agent must be installed on each of your VDI desktops sources – stand alone virtual machine, managed virtual machine, physical machine or terminal server. This is the last part of our View Installation step-by-step guides, covering the installation of VMware Horizon View agent.

View Agent must be installed on all virtual machines, physical systems, and Terminal Service servers that you use as sources for View desktops and desktop pools.
