VMware Carbon Black Cloud Professional — Question 25

While creating a new Instant Clone Desktop Pool, an administrator does not see a particular Windows 10 VM available or listed as an option for use as the golden image.
Which step must the administrator perform, prior to creating this new desktop pool?

Answer options

• A. Install VMware Dynamic Environment Manager Agent.
• B. Configure Advanced parameters of VMware Tools for Horizon of this VM.
• C. Take a Snapshot of the VM that is the golden image.
• D. Validate the Golden Image with VMware Skyline Health.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

Taking a snapshot of the VM that serves as the golden image is essential because Instant Clones rely on this snapshot to create new desktops. Without a snapshot, the administrator cannot use the VM as a source for cloning. The other options do not directly relate to preparing the VM for use as a golden image in the context of Instant Clones.
