FFulde Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 Hello everyone, we are currently evaluating where to take our VDI situation. We are currently running on "Horizon Standard Term Licenses - Concurrent Users" However I've found some conflicting resources in different licensing matrixes. On VMware Horizon Pricing Packaging and Licensing (PPL) White Paper here it says Session Based Desktops (Terminal Server Farms) are supported for Horizon Standard. On vmw-horizon-perpetual-and-subscription-term-feature-comparison.pdf (vmware.com) it says that Session Based Desktops (Terminal Server Farms) are not supported. Can anyone help me out here? I can create Farms in the Admin Center just fine, Applications, I cannot create because we don't have Horizon Advanced and it gives me a warning. So the question is "Am I allowed to create and use RDS Farms and Pools on Horizon Standard or would we need to upgrade to Advanced?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Gerard Strouth Posted July 15 Solution Share Posted July 15 That has always been an advanced option so I'm guessing the doc has a typo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Employee Rob Beekmans Posted July 23 Employee Share Posted July 23 The doc has a typo, Standard does not have RDSH as an option. The first link you have there is not going to a doc, was it the packaging guide that had the faulty table in it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FFulde Posted July 26 Author Share Posted July 26 Hi Rob, yes it was the packaging guide if I remember correctly - the link was still working when I posted this. Anyways, thanks for clearing up my question. Time to upgrade then since we have to let go of our Standard Term licenses in May 2025 anyways since the support runs out then and our licensing partner assured us we will not be able to renew Term licenses and we apparently were lucky to have renewed them in May 2022.

Employee Rob Beekmans Posted July 26 Employee Share Posted July 26 thanks for letting us know, we're going to fix these things.. I'm going to check the licensing comment, too much at hand and some things (licensing is first to drop) are booted from my memory 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Perhaps the partner was getting confused with Horizon Perpetual? Horizon Perpetual SNS won’t be supported after August 2025. We have not announced any plans to discontinue Horizon Term.

Employee Angela Ge Posted August 13 Employee Share Posted August 13 Omnissa Marketing is working on updating all of the licensing documents. The Standard Term does include RDSH function -Horizon Product Management Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andre Knoll Posted September 4 Share Posted September 4 Hello, We would like to upgrade our Horizon 8 Advanced Term per Concurrent User 1 year term license to 350 users. How much vsan data storage per user is included in omnissa Horizon 8 Advanced/ Advanced Term include? We think approx. 350 users x 100 GB = 35 TB VMware vSAN™Advanced for Desktop Subscription Term only. Is the Strech Cluster function included in this version? How can I license another 20 TB VMware vSAN™Advanced for Desktop Subscription Term only?
