VMware View is an enterprise‐class virtual desktop
manager that securely connects authorized users to centralized virtual
desktops. It provides a complete, end‐to‐end solution that improves
control and manageability and provides a familiar desktop experience.
Client software securely connects users to centralized virtual desktops,
back-end physical systems, or terminal servers.
NOTE:For more information,
on installing and configuring View Manager, go to VMware Website.
VMware View includes the following key components:
View Connection Server—A software service that
acts as an intermediate for client connections by authenticating and
then directing incoming remote desktop user requests to the appropriate
virtual desktop, physical desktop, or terminal server.
View Agent—A software service that is installed
on all guest virtual machines, physical systems, or terminal servers.
View Manager manages this software. The agent provides features such as
the Remote Desktop Connection monitoring, virtual printing, remote
USB support, and single sign-on.
View Client—It is a locally installed software
application that communicates with View Connection Server, to allow
users to connect to their desktops using Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection.
View Portal—This component is similar to View
Client but provides a View user interface through a web browser. It
is supported on multiple operating systems and browsers.
View Administrator—This component provides
the View administration through a web browser. View administrators
use it to do the following:
Manage configuration settings.
Manage virtual desktops and entitlements of desktops of
the Windows users and groups.
View Administrator also provides an interface to monitor log
events and is installed with View Connection Server.
View Composer—To allow View Manager to rapidly
deploy multiple linked clone desktops from a single centralized base
image, View Composer software service is installed on the Virtual
Center server.
