METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR A COMMON-ATTRIBUTE VIRTUAL DESKTOP INFRASTRUCTURE (VDI) ENVIRONMENT WITH TIERED STORAGE CAPABILITIES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
- This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 17723061 Titled 'METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR A COMMON-ATTRIBUTE VIRTUAL DESKTOP INFRASTRUCTURE (VDI) ENVIRONMENT WITH TIERED STORAGE CAPABILITIES'
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a method for managing a virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) environment. It involves obtaining different configuration templates for a storage resource, which are associated with virtual desktop (VD) pools. A common configuration template set is also obtained. Using these templates, configurations are generated for each VD pool. A default VD pool is selected, and a number of virtual desktops (VDs) are deployed into this pool based on its configuration.
Original Abstract Submitted
A method for managing a virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) environment includes: obtaining a plurality of target resource specific pool specific configuration templates for a target resource, in which each of the plurality of target resource specific pool specific configuration templates is associated with one or a plurality of virtual desktop (VD) pools, in which the target resource is storage; obtaining a common configuration template set; generating a VD pool configuration for each of the plurality of VD pools using the plurality of target resource specific pool specific configuration templates and the common configuration template set to obtain a plurality of VD pool configurations; selecting a default VD pool from the plurality of VD pools; and deploying, based on the selection, a plurality of VDs into the default VD pool using a VD pool configuration associated with the default VD pool.
