The Connection Server software cannot coexist on the same virtual or physical machine with any other VMware Horizon 8 software component, including a replica server, Horizon Agent, or Horizon Client. Connection Server automatically maintains some Horizon LDAP entries. The installation loads the schema definitions, Directory Information Tree (DIT) definition, and ACLs and initializes the data.Īfter installation, you manage most Horizon LDAP configuration data by using Horizon Console. When you select the standard installation option, the installation creates a new, local Horizon LDAP configuration.
