VD image: pre-install applications

[Paul Kieboom]

A little bit late, but these are the steps we have been carried out:

- Make a Pre-Install taskset with all the Ondemand Service tasks you want: install applications, settings, etc.
- Join the VMware Golden Image to the domain
- Restart the machine (required)
- No need for logon
- The Scense Ondemand Service will start because of the restart and will perform the Pre-Install tasks
- Use "Computer Information" within a Scense Explorer and check the progress of all the Pre-Install tasks
- Remove the VMware Golden Image from the domain
- Restart (required) and shutdown
- Finally take a snapshot of this Virtual Machine

Now you can recompose the Virtual Desktops for your users to this snapshot of the Golden Image.

Kind regards,
Paul
